Lightbulb 427 industrial engine swap???

As you may know my truck right now has a 250 straight six and 3 speed manual... 4:11s with no posi yet (I'm workin' on that)

I was almost sure I was going to be normal and go with a small block chevy 350 and 4 speed, but now I'm not so sure at all...

the 427 BB from the C60/C70/ect... have peaked my interest... I wanna put one in my '68 and I have a few questions...

- is this a good idea for a swap?

-can I mount the engine on the six-banger mounts?

-I'm aware these motors came attached to SM420s and SM465s stock for manuals... I want a faster transmission with higher gears... what tranny do you reccomend for a truck that will be raced and are there any other trannies I might find in these trucks with these engines? (slushboxes)

-what trannies will or will not bolt up to the Bellhousing?
