I believe I would be willing to plunk down some $ on a 351W HO reman. Sounds like the solution for keeping the 3.55 gears, with less lugging in overdrive on...

AOD will bolt right up. I am not that familiar with the trucks so I can't say for sure if the motor mounts or headers/manifolds will bolt up. You will for sure...
