Thanks Otto, I will keep all that in mind. Im not closed to the Idea of a straigt axle. I just have no point of reference. Keeping it stock would be well within my means: time, money and skill wise. If I go with a swap thats a whole nother thing. Also there is a fair amount of curiosity on my part.
Gdads51. I asked the wrong front clip question. Upon further thought I should have asked how to keep a 216-235-261 engin when doing a front clip swap. It apears that the majority of clip swaps also instal a v8 as part of the proces. Im sure its a simple work around to keep the 6, just having trouble visualuzing it. Are there 216-235-261 engines with side motor mounts or did they all come with the front motor mounts?
MNSmith. I enjoyed the write up. I will see what I can find regarding a G body clip.
