Noooooooooo Keep the FE it weighs way less than that 385 series motor. If you want more hp grab a Pond, Shelby or Genisis 427 block and a 4.375 crank for a 500ci FE. You can get to 700hp with the heads you have if the pot job is done right,

That CJ should work unless you get more radical with the suspension.
