V8 conversions have historically shown to be some of the worst out there. With that much budget you could get a manual transmission one and then just change it over fairly cheaply.

There are good v8 conversions. Just have to find one done by a reputable mechanic.

I passed on a couple super clean conversions last year to chase a different rabbit hole. I’m back...and seeking the same.

I understand the sacrifice of an auto.

^^ Saw that. A bit overpriced IMO.

For some reason I thought your budget was up to 35k. Thought this came close.

It still is; that doesn't necessarily mean the truck is worth that much (to me). Obviously a nice rig, but overpriced for what I see.

I have a very good 1977 which just needs the engine and auto trans installed. It is a high-quality build by one of the very best experts in the States. I am not in a position to finish the project but if you're interested please let me know and I'll give you more details. Thank you.
