thanks everyone for your MUCH NEEDED reply's. so first off i have been looking at two options: stay with the 235 or go with the 350 (Achipmunk if the 283 is for sale i would like some info on it). looking for a decent condition 292 has been pretty hard and the ones i find will end up costing a lot more than if i stay with the 235 or get a 350. rebuilding a 235 and giving it some nice parts will end up be right around 2,500$ and buying a 350 small block create engine with a decent dress up kit ect. will cost near 3,000$ so theres not much of a difference and it comes to what would be the best fit for what i want. so what i would like to have is a everyday truck. i want to put it away during the rainy seasons but drive it pretty often during the summer. the current 235 has been pretty slow since i bought but if there are several ways to speed it up i would be interested in hearing about them. As for the power issues i would be happy with being able to at least hit 75 without the engine struggling so if any of you guys have. I'm really leaning toward staying with the 235 but if i can't at least get some more power out of it then the 350 is more bang for my buck. Thanks again everyone
