Put a v6 in 82 silverado?

[chevymadness]

I'm tired of a v8 350 sucking gas up and leaving my wallet tapped out crying for mercy.And worst yet I can't afford to drive to the eastside of town to find a job because the west side of town has no opportunities.Jesus 350s are a joke no wonder most newer trucks nowadays are v6 and they should stay that way!.I get 10mpg preety much what I pay for is what I get and that's city miles I guesstimate it does about 13mpg highway and this truck is not lifted but sitting on its chest and with the transmission with 1 gear!.I have a 82 silverado and I'm thinking about throwing a v6 in it all I have heard of is a s10 v6 or a "v6 vortex" whatever the hell that is OR a 305 v8 i doubt its much difference.I don't pull any weight no trailers and not looking for "power" just to get around.I don't know how much HP I will be getting but the truck is not that heavy about 3,000 pounds.What should I do!
