1993 C1500 Buick Straight 8 build.

[RW74]

I was given two perfectly running 1952 Buick 263 engines with the original 3 speed floor shift transmissions.

My 1993 C1500 extended cab has a shot engine and transmission so, instead of spending thousands on what I don't have, I'm using what I do.

Key note: If a 292 straight 6 will fit, a 263 straight 8 can fit with a little bit of work.

I'm using 292 engine mounts and drilling them for the 263 block.

Sorry. All I have is an early 2000's Compaq desktop running Windows Vista.

That and I'm terrified of advanced tech.

I might be able to get a friend to take pictures and upload them while I hide in my house but, I don't own a camera, nor a device that has one.
