I have a 54 chevy in good condition..with the original engine..... I use the truck on weekends to get around town and was considering replacing the engine with something a bit newer...... Looking more for reliability, not really a purist, just really want to drive the truck regularly.
I'm not a mechanic so I'll have to search one out.. Is there a remanufactured engine that anyone would recommend....? I want to maintain the shift (floor).... Do I have to consider updating to 12 Volts........?
Any idea's of rough parts/labor cost....? Does there have to be much modification to accomodate a newer 6cyl?
Thanks,
