Mine has 8, and most of the time you use 6 or 7. Was it the 292 that had offset mounts? My dad said that they had bigger Straight 6's for the trucks, and that they went up to 400CID. He may have been thinking of the GMC V6's as well. It does have the offset mounts and it is fairly big. We need to do some maintenance to it. What should all be done? I know, oil, filter, clean and re-oil air filter, plugs, wires, Dizzy cap, etc. what else? What is availability on cartridge style oil filters? Should we convert to spin-on type? It is midnight, sorry if this may be a little hard to read. Thanks in Advance.
