Not sure about any other engine, but GM Vortec 4.3 (190 horsepower stock) from a 92 1500 pickup is a drop in fit. Use original, if metal, radiator, serpentine belt and flex fan. Power steering is right there by the steering, a/c on passenger side.
Computer included in install or:
86 HEI distributor, pre computer carburator.
Adapter plate to two barrel, or
intake change and four barrel (kinda over kill without posi-traction).
Wire 4-5 p.s.i. fuel pump in (connect + wire to the cut wire from the fuel pump in the tank).
To not have to alter the cross member, a modified 55-57 v8 Chevy oil pickup with a custom made front sump oil pan (or dry sump?) should get around that. On a tight budget, I altered the cross member. There may be a front sump chevy v6 pan out there.
