The replacement 389ci V8 was installed in 2014 by Nino Performance, and uses a block sourced from a contemporary Catalina.
The engine was overbored and fitted with Keith Black pistons, Eagle H-beam connecting rods, a COMP Cams Factory Muscle camshaft, roller rockers, a Melling oil pump, a Milodon oil pan, and ARP studs.
The engine is topped with three two-barrel carburetors. An electric cooling fan is also installed.
The five-digit odometer shows 11k miles, true mileage is unknown.
