Mostly stock.  Someone swapped the 304 for a 350/SM420 over 20 years ago.  I found it behind a friends barn collecting dust on the vineyard.  (they give tours in a '58 CJ5 and '68 M-715) Once I cleaned and polished it, turned out to be yellow!  Oil pressure is a little low, so I'll swap in an '89 TBI system when I pull the engine soon.
