I am thinking about swapping out the engine and transmission when I restore my '53 3100 to something modern.

I'm not so much interested in making it a hot rod with lots of power and speed...perhaps just a modern 6-cylinder. A good reliable runner.

Any recommendations of what engines/transmissions fit well?

Anyone ever done a new engine with fuel injection?

I'm at the point where I am thinking out loud, so any comments, suggestions and recommendation are very much appreciated.

Thank You
