351 V-6 in a pick-up. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I was out at the sod farm,which is a virtual rolling museum of old trucks,and this one guy next to me had another Custom Camper that looked just like mine(only restored!). So I was talking to him about it and he tells me it has the rare 351 V-6 option. I've heard of 305 V-6s in a Pick-up but never a 351.None of the literature I've seen ever mentioned this option except in a medium-duty truck. He wasn't too impressed with the gas mileage as I recall,and was thinking about switching to a 350. Has anybody else seen one of these?
