what engine to replace 216 in 1949 pickup

i am starting to restore a 1949 3100 pickup. i want to use it for daily use. i will keep the 216 for future use, in case i want to have it original. i don't know what engines are commonly used for replacements. for now i just want a engine more suitable for daily use at normal highway speeds. what would be a good choice for a good dependable engine that is not too much of a gas hog??
