Thanks for all the responses everyone! The truck is more of a weekend driver when it’s not 100*f outside or 30*f I already have a good daily with a LS. The main reason I want to keep the truck GMC is it just seems like everyone puts a 350 in it and calls it a day and I feel you loose some of the “GMC” aspect when you do that. Side note, I live in North Dakota, the amount of old 58-59 GMC grain trucks sitting in fields is astounding I’m thinking I could get a running 336 out of one of those or might even be able to find a 270 or 302.
