The 2.7 is a fun and cheap motor. I got one, rebuilt it, did not throw the expensive upgrades into it: newer oil pump, oil fed chain tensioners. The upgrades are better, but not necessary. I got a 74, so no thermal reactor BS to deal with. The 74 is a healthy engine to start with. I rebuilt my engine for less than $3k buy educating myself and seeking out experience vs regurgitated hearsay. Another good thing about a 2.7 is that you do not need an oil cooler. It is the biggest you can go without needing one.
