[oletrucks] Off topic swap

["Spencer" <wits_end@worldnet.att.net>]

I have a friend who wants to swap out the 6.2 liter diesel (with a cracked
head) in his 1983 GMC 4WD.  He'd like to convert to a small block gas 350.

Would he need a GMC motor to match up to the tranny or would a Chevy 350 be
okay?  The tranny is an automatic, probably a Turbo 350 or 400.  The truck
is in great shape except for the engine, and is worth sinking some money
into.

Thanks
