I have always imagined how cool it would be to have it fitted with a cross ram running four DCOE's, Duntov 097 cam, Corvette valve covers, and sitting nicely inside a 59 or 60 Biscayne.

Agreed - when I had my 66 with the original 283 in it, I scrounged parts for several years to come up with a low rise offy manifold and two wcfbs, vette valve covers, and the original vette aluminum air cleaners. Of course then I sold the truck... ha. Probably wouldn't have run as well as the single 4 bbl on it already, but it would've looked better parked with the hood up.
