Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My '66 Burb runs a 292. Peppy off the line, but no top-end with my 411 gears.

Definitely keeping mine though. I've been a six-cyclinder fan since I drove a '50 Chevy hay-truck as an early teen. I loved dropping the hammer and listening to that big six gear-drive wind up. Pissed off the farmer I worked for something fierce, but hey, I was only 13.

I'm gonna leave mine pretty stock. It's only got 34,000 on it, though it sat for almost 20 years. Aside from a few leaks, and a definite need of new paint, and peripherials, it runs great. For now, I'll just seal it up, and do a header and something carb-related--maybe dual Rochester B's, or a two-barrel.

Possibly the best running worst looking engine I've ever had!
