: I've owned my beloved Power Wagon Since 1971 and its finally ready for a rebuild. Would like to go for a few more horses but is it worth the hassle of converting to a big block from the current old style 318? I'd appreciate any imput, Thanks
the biggest thing to consider is the tranny. if you have a hydraulic clutch it'll be hard to find a bellhousing. the mechanical linkage model shouldn't be too hard to find. last alternative is to use a 727 truck auto with the 8" tailshaft. by the way, i'm still looking for a hyd. bellhousing, it's been almost a year now with no luck!
