Re: Next steps for the 63?
My opinion would be to rebuild the 292 with some good parts and a 4 barrel since you already have that engine in the truck.
A small block would be a good choice even with the T5. You could still keep your 4:10s too.
If you decide to go small block, you'll need the 230, 250, and small block frame stand. The 292 sits farther forward on the frame on the passenger side only. Driver's side is the same. I've got an extra set, so I'd trade my passenger side for yours if that's what you end up deciding. I'm not sure if the 305 v6 frame stands are different
