The 350 may bolt in but then you may have some problems with the
transmission. If you decide to go with a Chevy transmission like a TH-400
you will have to make a custom 4wd shifter mount. I'm not sure but you may
also have to cut the drive shaft between the transmission and the transfer
case.
I've heard that someone makes a bell housing to mount the original
transmission to a Chevy.
I've got an overbore 327 with a 4bl. Carb. and headers in mine.

350 Chevvy V8's almost bolt right in with a small adapter. I have two
sitting in my yard now. Most horsepower for the money is the 350 swap. 1SG
