Default Re: What type engine?
GWTaylor, Yep, that is the whole reason for this site. Or most of the reason. To promote the V6 special Big Block GMC only motor. You have one now. Don't get confused. As said, there are straight 6's (L6) and there are 305 V8's.......but you have a 305 V6.
Your motor may surprise you if you just "service it" properly. Carb rebuild, fresh oil...maybe water and fuel pump. It will run 250,000 miles. Most trucks back then never saw big mileage like they do today. They were not family vehicles much back then.
Clean it up and drive it. If it has not been started in a long time, use proper restart procedures before starting. The experienced members on here will advise how to do that if you need that info.

P.S. You may have "plaid" valve covers!!!! That's really good!!!!!
