I have a 1955 2nd truck with a worn out 235 Hydramatic combination. Is it possible to swap to a 1969 250 I6 without too much/many probs?

It,s not a simple swap but with the right equipment & knowhow it can be done effectively. You will want to use a later trans. that matches the engine.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.

Easier to rebuild the 235.

Depends on what you want to do. A 250 would be an upgrade as it produces more power & is easier to modify. You could also use virtually any late model transmision as well.
