Have a '60 ¾ ton (2wd) - I need a second set of eyes
on my truck - should I rebuild the existing 235 ?
Drop in a 350 with auto for daily driver ?
Drives ok, but need lower ratio axle - pretty sure 4.57.
... you know, the Eaton HO one.
If I change axle, could also change tranny/engine.
[ would keep 235 / 4spd and rebuild over time ]
Any volunteers ?

dbwr, you have many options with that truck.
I had a 66 GMC. It originally came with an inline 6. It also sported an LS6 454, a 400, a 350, a 305 and now a built 350. They all pretty much "bolt in", other than exhaust when going from the 6 or 454 to the SBC.
Another quality post.

Rugo, I have not seen many 47 5 windows so I jumped at the chance to own it. No Vin tag, but I've searched long enough to know the quirks of a 47 over a 48.
By chance does anyone know where I might find a driver side rear fender?
