A 3-53 even with a turbo is not worth the trouble to swap into a truck. Not quite enough power.
However, A 4-53 with turbo is a nice swap in my oppinion.
I am just finishing the tough part of swapping a 4-53T in my 48 Chevy 2 ton.
Search this site for Detroit Diesel if you are interested.
And I welcome any questions on the subject, just start a new thread or send me a PM.
