Well if it was me and the 263 is heading out to lunch , i would make that old wore out 263 into a 291 and make it a better gasser . But that is me and when i build one of them 263to 291's i sometimes get carried away with the build as i do a line bore on the block then have the block bored to the center of the crank then deck the block and do a total rebuild of the head . Then i get the cam rebuilt and install new lifter then comes the balancing of everything from the ft. of the engine to the clutch as this is the cheapest horsepower ya can buy . go thru the carb and ream the main jet out .001 recurve the dist to the 291 spec's and when done it will run the bag off a good 806 and in the end it is way less money then tryen to make the switch . And a whole bunch less problems in the end and high test gas is still cheaper then diesel.
