Hello, im new here, I've been lurking when I can and learning as much as possible. I have a 26 dodge, dont know who built it, I got it last year and it is a fun ride! It has an isuzu 4 cylinder g180 out of a 79 chevy luv. 4 speed trans, 10 bolt rear. Overall just fun, not a race car, but fun to cruise. Im having ignition troubles, and I am thinking about replacing everything and putting an electronic ignition in. My cousin on the other hand is pushing for me to use a chvy 4. 3 v6 and auto trans that he has. I have a list of pros and cons for both, I just thought I would see what you guys think.
 
Post your list please.

Don't let someone talk you into a decision that you can't embrace. Keep in mind it's going to be considerably more work to modify the frame to handle the V6 and a different transmission.

Do you have the skills to make such a change ...... welding, cutting steel brackets. Possible some brackets can be bought from one of our sponsors for the forum. Links at the top of the page. If you have CAD skills they can make custom brackets.

Do you grow fruit in Fruita ? :cool:
