" A good resource for Chevy trucks and restoration in

" try to keep it original or put a later 235 Chevy six
" in it. I wouldn't butcher a truck and put an AMC
" powerplant in it just to show the Chevy guys. I think
" the same downsides would apply to this swap as to a
" non-AMC powerplant in an AMC. It just wouldn't get
" any respect.
if i was gonna stick with a stovebolt i'd go for a '60 +/- 261, the
largest version, but as the gmc even then shared chassis with the
chevy i don't think dropping a jimmy 302 in would be a hack since it
could be done with all factory parts.
