Ok guys, I need some opinions. I have a low mile 292 I was debating throwing in the truck. Mostly for nostalgic reasons, looks cool, etc. I would throw a 700r4 behind it and leave the 3.07s in the rear. I was thinking this would make a cool cruiser. However, I originally planned a LS swap and loved my last one. But I can have the truck running bad driving for cheap with the 292, or around $2000 or so for the LS. I'm not trying to build a fast truck so I don't have to have the V8, just a dependable cruiser, what are your guys thoughts and opinions and why. Thanks fellas.
