Just wondering if there would be any issues with swapping the original 283 in my 63 c10 with a 350 out of a 78 z28? we may or may not be putting a new transmission in, but right now it has a turbo 350 in it. will there be any issues mounting it up to that? thanks for any help in advance.

The 283 and the 350 are the same externally. The tranny will bolt up to either block and the engine mounts are the same. Should be a walk in the park.
