/6 to V8 questions
That looks too pretty to do any swapping on. But so was mine and a 360 roller now sits where my slant did. Got a 727 behind it and just got a long legged 8.25 to go out back. It's not done yet but so far didn't hurt that bad financially. 250 for an 5.9 out of a rollover pickup. 200 for the trans from Craigslist. Schumacher spool mounts , crosswind intake and carter carb, I think I'm under a grand. With 5 grand you can do better than I did.
