Hey there everyone. This is my first post here. I have just picked up a 1948 studebaker landcruiser. It is running and driving. I have started to strip the paint off to see what shape the metal is in. It is near perfect and all original steel.
I want to swap out the straight 6 for a ford 360 ci motor. The reason for doing this is because of the positive group 6v system and reliability. Is a v8 swap easy for these older studebakers? What are the main things to worry about? Is it a straight forward job to complete?
On a side note, is it easy to take my positive ground 6v to a 12v negative?
Thanks again for your help and sorry if this question has been asked a bunch of times.
