Hey I have an opportunity to purchase a 92 chevy van. It has the 5.7 and 700 trans. Should I buy it? It was for a guy and he kept his wrecked van to put the drive train in his 80 chevy C-10, but his plans have changed. My 70 C-10 has the orginal 250 and 3 on tree 3 speed. I'm mostly excited about the trans and the access to overdrive, but while the truck is down may as well swap the 350 also. SO to get to the end would this be a money pit of a swap? My 250 has only 300 miles since it was rebuilt and I know I'm solid if I pass up the van.
