V8 in a 140? 140-160 70

Fodder for Flaming!

If you want rail on me for asking, please don't waste our time. That said, here goes; has anyone done or is aware of a V8 conversion for a 140 series? I'm looking at picking up a '69 or '70 140 with a tired engine (I love the body style) and I have a dependency on large displacement engines made out of Detroit wonder metal (cast iron). There is plenty of info/kits available for dropping a V8 into a 200 or 700 series but I'm not finding much for the older models.

Any sarcastic comments, wittful insight, flames based on pure emotion and generally useful information will be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
