I6 Swap - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hello,

The search function seems to be down and I have read through all pages to find info on getting the inline 6 out of my truck. It's an 82 short bed with a 3 speed manual I picked out of my grandpa's barn. I would love to put a 454 or caddy 500 in (as I have found) but I am new to Chevy trucks and am looking for a comprehensive write up for a swap like this. What I have read is trucks that already had a 350 in them. Do companies make kits for this or are they traditionally pieced together? Where can I find more info? Thanks in advance.
