Bob,
As far as the distrubutor goes, a converted GM 250 I6 can be done. Buffalo
Enterprises in Washington State or Stovebolt Engine Company in Michigan
sells them already done up. I think around $125 less cap and rotor. If you
are using a finned push rod cover such as the Wayne, the distributor will
hit the fins. You could grind them down or I believe Tom Langdon has also
done a conversion using a GM V6 distributor which is smaller and won't
interfere with a finned push rod cover. You can get find contact info for
them from http://chevytrucks.org. Also there was thread on this a while
back where the procedure was outlined by someone who did the conversion
themself. You could search the list archives which are also accessible from
chevytrucks.org.
Mike
