What if I told you I had a good running m-715 Tornado....I could be wrong but I think if you use all the accessories off of yours on this one it would be a tornado....(replace 24v stuff and change the timing cover so you could use your water pump.) might want to check to make sure about what I say since I have no experience or information to back up what I say.
The price is right up your alley.........trade off on labor. I am pulling the motor out of the M-715 and putting in a 302 and c4 for pops to play with.

Its got a super Hurricane in it now if I was gonna step down to a Tornado I might as well put a Chevy motor in it.
