Default 1974 Mustang II-Where to buy?

I am planning on restoring my 1974 Mustang II and I don't know where i should get my engine and transmission. Where do you think the best place is to get a 6 cylinder-8cylinder engine and an automatic transmission? Thanks

If your goin stock I would get a Jasper engine and transmission.They are excellent in my opinion and they have a really good warranty.
