hey guys back so soon, Truck is a 1954 GMC 350 (2 Ton)
trying to brainstorm ways to up power production and be able to use public highways safely. so 2 things need to change. engine and transmission. id like to keep the original rear end (i dont even know what its called and cant find gear sets for it if someone could point out its designation and if there are gear sets for it i could keep the 4 speed as well and not need to lose my parking brake that would be awesome!!) if not i have a tremec 5 spd which could go behind my v8. some said the v8 swap is hard because of the steering box, that makes sense but is it terrible? i mean for the smaller trucks they can swap right over to a rack & pinion problem solved but us big bolts dont have that luxury that im aware of. so how bad is it? thanks for all your help.
(i feel like a zombie after scrolling through hundreds of pages of threads)
