Hi people im new here just need a bit of help

I believe you are in my area because your photo looks like it is at Ohlone. If you want, PM me your number and I will give you a call tomorrow. One of the locals should have a good running /6. Don't kid yourself, you are going to have time and money into swapping the SBC in (fabricating mounts, revised driveshaft, linkage, etc.). Putting another /6 in there will be the quick fix if you want it up and running soon.
