Anyone ever done one? I have a 67 45 that was swapped over a couple owners ago to a 350, which I am looking at replacing. I have found a complete running engine, trans, transfer case from a 69 40 that was pulled as a unit.

thoughts?
 
Depends if you are a purist and intent is OEM. What is wrong with the 350? Also depends on how you intend to use the truck. Some 350 installs were done terribly and the hacking almost makes it impossible to go back to stock. If the 350 is on its last legs and you already have the bits to go back to stock it’s a no brainer from a $ standpoint. You will be in the slow lane if you are ok with that. If you have to rebuild the 69 drive train it does add up. Lots of variables.
