grand nationals had a 3.8 turbo v6, syclone and typhoon had the 4.3 turbo. but a turbo 6 isnt optimal for a heavy truck. is the truck ext cab or single cab short bed. bc if it is that a turbo 6 can work in it since its not that heavy. but any SBC from 283-400 will slide right into there and same goes for a BBC. the choice is yours. if it had a V6 from the factory you need to unbolt the motor mounts on the frame and bolt them into the V8 position.
