Swapping a later Pontiac V8 and later transmission into '55-59 GMC trucks only requires front engine mounting points added to the frame, and fabrication of a crossmember for rear of transmission mounting. Exhaust clearance to the steering box may require fudging the front of the engine slightly off the truck's centerline.
