    It can be done, but you are better off with one of the modern GM V6s.

    In terms of "compatible" you gain nothing with the 304 over any other V8. Just becasue it was used in Jeeps doesn't make it any more compatible with the '63.

    Read about Jeep engine swaps on the Novak site: http://www.novak-adapt.com/knowledge/chevy_buick_swap.htm ... browse everything on the site - lots of good info there.
