What problems are to be expected fitting a 270 into a 39 or 40 pickup?
I think I've read that the radiator has to be moved forward due to the extra length of the GMC engine. Is this right,& what is involved regarding hood modifications etc? Are there any alternative solutions? I'm not concerned about running gear adaptions, as long as it is realistic to physically fit the engine into the engine bay.
Do the same problems exist in the heavier trucks of the same years?
Thanks - (all enquiries for a future project)
