Considering the mid-60s style and details so far...I'd say a Big Block Ford, like the recently reissued Parts Pack 427, or the much better engine from the 66-67 Fairlane/Comets.

Hummmmm................Seems like a EYR side oiler would work pretty good. Might just have to finish the molds. .?.

fbr I am a newbi here but have a great deal of experience with the "Skeeters"
I was around then (When the Skeeter division was begun) and talking about FAST
I had a 427 big block ford powerhouse in mine and if it wasn't for the wing I would have never manuvered a turn! the Ford slid right off the track every time I lead footed it
I am trying to replicate a full starting grid of the skeeters that I raced against,. so far I have about 10 SEMM, TU>

Peace
