so I'm asking around...

my 1948 3/4 ton chevy pickup came to me with a 350 V8 and 12V system.

the engine has been puffing a bit of blue smoke for a while, and now,
it seems, the #5 cylinder is giving up on me.

thinking about getting a different engien instead of rebuilding this
one..  and I'm looking for input

stay with what i got?
try a smaller V8?
V6?
Inline 6?


 if all goes well i'll be able to pick up a used running engine cheap


 later,

 Robert
