K jet will be tons-o-fun but as far as I understand it the D jet isn't something I can tune to work on a 560 and I would hate to put a carb on it when I have access to (primitive) fuel injection.

As far as the Pontiac goes Mike, I like the torque and the blocks are both "middle weights". The Pontiacs also have monster 3.25" mains.
You are correct about the D-jet; those systems are analog, and engine specific. There is no provision for remapping.
An alternate approach would use the distributor based ignition system of the 560, and a Megasquirt/Microsquirt controller for the fuel, using the engine speed signal from the 560 ignition. From a wiring standpoint, this would be simpler than the KE. It also would not require the dual fuel pump installation of the KE.
