How much money do you have to work with and what is your goal? People can throw out suggestions all day long, but without a budget and an idea of what you want, it's hard to tell you what works for the money you have.

If you replace all that stuff with aftermarket parts, you don't really have a K motor any more. It's just another 289. The value of that motor is really in the casting numbers of someone looking to build a correct restoration. Also, if it's a 5-bolt block, it's not going to bolt up to you existing '68 C4.
