Default Pontiac 400 in a 1967 Chevy C20

I am working with Justin on yet another project. It's a 1967 Chevy C20 fleetside long bed. Original engine is a 283 with 3 on the tree. We have the truck completely apart and have sent the rolling chassis off to be bagged. See link.

Meantime the body has been media blasted and is awaiting the frame.
We are discussing engine/trans combinations. We want this to be a driver truck with balls. It will also be used as needed as a tow vehicle. Having said that mileage is a factor. There are a couple choices that come to mind right off.
1. Rebuild original 283 and upgrade to 700R4 AT.
2. Drop in a Pontiac 400 (which we have in garage) and upgrade to 700R4.
What thoughts, feedback does the board have? If anyone has planted a Pontiac in a Chevy truck please speak up.
