Where do I search?
If it was originally a slant 6 truck I would recommend upgrading the front end w/ 3/4 ton springs. 440 is a LOT heavier than a slant....

Thanks to everyone for the help. Found everything I needed, ended up with set of extra pulleys a/c, truck manifolds, and 68 chrysler hp car manifolds, all for sale.
