How does anyone feel about replacing a stock 283 with a Hydramatic, with a 350/Turbo 400 in my '57 GMC....
The thing is, this is only a partial custom job...lowered suspension, upgrade to power/disc brakes in the front only, and change of color, new rims/ tires....BUT I have all stock parts...Will I regret changing the engine too? (more horse power, smoother shifting, alternator, fuel injected, fuel economy) or keep the stock motor/ trans. if it runs fine and just get a new manifold and 4 barrel edelbrock?
By the way, the 283 and hydramatic run fine, I'm just thinking I might want to do the work now, when it's just the frame...instead of 5 years from now
