Re: Good engine for 62 chevy truck?

If it ain't broke don't fix it. The fastest way to turn a good, usable truck into a cadaver is to pull the engine. I've done it before. Usually, once the engine is out, you get into a mode where you want to rebuild the suspension, paint the chassis, etc. The next you know, 5 years pass you by and it's still a cadaver in the garage. But, it has turned from a $1000 runner into a $10,000 cadaver.
