ok so i know anything is possible with the right know how and money. i am limited on both unfortunately, ha! so the engine in the 64 dart knocks and squeals (like that when i got it) and i dont have $1000+ to spend on rebuild. i was hoping to find a cheap gently used one somewhere, possibly new enough that the hardened valves arent an issue? any suggestions on what i should or shouldnt look for? i will likely be getting a buddy who has done engine swaps before to help me. thanks and since everyone loves pics...

Put a request in Parts Wanted section. Let everyone know where you are located. Good used slants arent hard to find.
Good Luck,
Frank
