Anybody here with tricked out chevy 6 cylinders?

Hey there, My name is T.J. and I am from the 60-66 chevy trucks board. There we have a thread entitled "Tricked out chevy 6 cylinders" thought it would be neat to see one here to, if there isn't one already. But I would love to see some and just for fun I will start with mine. 1966 chevy 292. Thanks.

I had one bad experience with mine when I had the wrong battery box that put the battery too high.. some hard off roading, sheared hold down bolt and battery contact with the hood made for an interesting afternoon. Luckily it just burnt some wire and did not destroy any igition parts. I get concerned when I see wires draped over metal that can heat up.

Looking at the photo it is probably a project still in the works since the terminal is disconnected and wiring is temporary.

Re: Anybody here with tricked out chevy 6 cylinders?

I've posted this one before. It's not mine, it used to belong to member, N2Billet. It's a 250 and was in a '67-'68 short fleet he used to own. I'm still very impressed by it.

If my '55 had come with a straight six I'd have kept it and dolled it up as close to this as I could have. They're just unique anymore and cool to own

Re: Anybody here with tricked out chevy 6 cylinders?

nice engines boys. I almost hot rodded out a 250 inline for my 56 because it's so out of the norm to see one with an inline still in it. There's nothing more I love than walking up to a car or truck at a show and seeing something different under the hood

Waiting on the GMC 6 cyl. I have a 270 with the better head in my 450 GMC firetruck I'm wanting to hop up a little. So far just converted to 12 volt and put Pertronix Ignition and coil in. Haven't cleaned up much other than hose off.
