I am getting ready to install my fresh 250 I6 into my 67 C-10. It is .030 over with 268 comp-cam, and clifford headers and heated intake. It orginally had a 4spd in it, but I have the parts to go with a 350th auto. It also has 3.08 gears. What do you guys think? I'm sitting on the fence and don't know which way to go. Thanks, Todd

Dear Todd;

An 'overdrive' trans is the best choice, as mentioned. The 3:08 is to "tall" for one though.
You just need to decide if you want a stick/auto is all.

A "stick shift" truck is probably faster to sell and the clutch linkage is already there.

Review the past postings here & see what others have done

Good luck. \:\)
