A good 235, 261, or even later model 250 or 292 will go as fast and haul as much as the old truck needs. If you do the 235 or 261 swap you can keep your old bell houseing clutch and brake petal. With the inline six their's no steering box problems no raidiator problems plus it looks like it's should be there. | | |
