I have had my 72 suburban for over 25 years and love it. Don't worry so much about value, as they always go up. If you like the six cylinder you can always rebuild it and add some performance products from Clifford research to hop it up.
Or swap in a LS and a 700R trans, its all up to you.
I left mine original because it just ran so nice. 350 engine with a 350 trans. It has about 233,000 miles and the motor has never been out of the truck.
For a long time it looked a little rough, but now is painted and has a nice three seat interior.
Its your truck, do whatever you like.
