The 248, 270, and 302 GMC sixes were all the same family of engine, so take your pick. I'd go with the 302 if I had the chance. They were used all through the 1950s so shouldn't be hard to find. I know there's quite a few around here.

Didn't the engine and gearbox come with the van Bob?
I too was watching the "old van" on ebay. They were sitting in the grass nearby as shown in the ebay pictures. One of 47 built according to Vanderveen.
