62 Burban and V6 ?

This next month, Ill be road tripping to pick up my new project ... a 62 GMC burban.

Excited about this build, as this vehicle will accomidate the entire family, especially when camping/boating.....and plain ol crusin !


Future plans will include a '63 3/4 ton frame swap, and some sort of modern junkyard V8 swap.

Currently, it has no drivetrain.

Untill I get around to the major project .... I was thinking of a temporary powerplant in its stock chassis..... A 2000 4.3 vortec v6, and 700r4.

This engine combo will eventually make its way into my Samurai project.

(man, I say that word a lot, 'project')

Thought this would a quick couple weekend install, beats pushing around a burban around the yard, and could actually drive it untill Im ready for a full build.

Curious how it would perform ?

Assuming its about 190hp..... Compared it stock v6....

At least Im staying true to the "V6" badging on hood !
