Re: to molest or not...hum

I think a swap will devalue a low mile pretty low production truck.I`d do up a small block for torque and keep it in stock appearance.Not to mention how much classier that approach is.I had a nice`68 short fleet w/396 that was tired.I set it aside and put an LS6 in it using all the 396 stuff on top so it looked original.But,that s.o.b. didn`t run like an original.
