I'll take 12 - how would you like payment???
BBC aren't usually that easy to find - the racers like to snatch them up and they aren't ususally that cheap when you find them.

That being said I think a BBC conversion would be cheaper than trying to rebuild/find parts for the V6 but I'm not 100% sure.

you'll want lots of low end torque - and probably not want something that is "high reving"
some of those bigger trucks had 292 6cly's and Small Blocks in them as well.

How about doing a diesel swap???
