All depends what you have for an engine. Either a 283 or 348. If you have the 348(just my opion) I would keep it , although the 283 were nice engines too. It's really what you perfer.Keep smiling, it only hurts when you think it does!

I agree man. I mean we really don't know much about what you got now. For all I know it's a 235 I6 and a three on the tree. What kinda tranny you got nad what are you tryin' to do with the truck? Do you want a hot rod or a driver, a work truck maybe? Nothin' wrong with a new motor, but depending on your intentions something else may work just as well.

Ok gang. It's been awhile. With everything that was going on taking care of my mom's affairs and making a few needed mods to the Healey, it was June before anything really got rolling on this...
