503 six cylinder engine was used in some 55.2-59 GMC 6xx and 8xx series trucks. These are BIG trucks. I don't know about the physical size of the engine, but I'd bet it wouldn't fit into the space offered by smaller trucks.

As hard as small GMC 6 cylinder engines are to find parts for, spares for this engine are probably made of Unobtainium.

Maybe Kenneth would have an opinion.
