I know it's way more work than many other swaps but like I said my line of work has me thinking. I am not really sold on it just looking for opinion.

I'm pretty sold on a big block crate 502 or having a a Big block built.
I say it's your car and do what you want. There are pros and cons to any engine set up. If you have a way to make it happen and want something more unique, go for it. My personal opinion would be to go with the big block idea and add fuel injection to it. Great power, street manners (tuned right) and maybe some decent mpg.
But to each his own. Do what makes you happy with your car.
