Engine gone

Just got a heavy rod knock in my '66 f250 352. Any thoughts about rebuilding original or switch to redone 360 done 4 years (150 miles). Tempted to keep the original just because it's matching #s. Big D coming up so $ are tight, but will most likely be buried in my truck, so looking long term. Thanks for any input.

Hey Rog, Don't know that their are any numbers to track your engine to your truck, The 360 is a direct bolt in the same hole swap and has hardened valve seats. I think it would make a nice replacement.
