'67 c20

Good Morning Everyone,

I am just getting started on 1967 Chevy C20 longbed 327 w/ 4spd. My grandfather bought the truck brand new in '67 (camper special) and she's been in the family ever since. I am rebuilding the 327 this week and since the engine is out I was wondering a few things. I would love to switch that granny geared 4 speed for a 5 or 6 speed, but I'm not totally sure what would bolt up to the engine. I am also considering changing out the 4.10 gears to 3.73 gears in hopes of the freeway no longer being my enemy. Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks

Mike

welcome to the board the truck looks good , you should be able to find your rears right here on the forum, a 5 or 6 speed should also be an easy swap

Re: '67 c20

In my travels I have come across a 94 Chevy 2500 4x4 with a 350tbi & an NV4500 for cheap. I have my sights set on a 383tbi setup but the 4x4 to 2x4 conversion is new to me. How difficult would it be to convert the 4x4 trans to a 2x4?
