Thought it would be good if we would have one here.

Did a quick search and didn't find any started.

Here’s mine. Nothing fancy, but looked very nice 20 years ago when I first put it together:

Ten years and about 130,000 daily driver miles later:

Ten years after that – not pretty, but a lot cleaner:

63burb · 08-19-2010, 07:05 PM

this is mine still looks the same.
I've been thinking...can I swap a newer straight 6 from a 69 pick up in to my 63? would it bolt up to my stock trany and mm?
My pops just picked up a 69 c/10 and he wants to swap it for a 350

Is that 6 banger out of that 69 a 250 or a 292?

63burb · 08-19-2010, 07:41 PM

I'm not sure i haven't really talk to my pops about it.
What would be the difference between both of them? or better yet what problem would i run into if its either one?

It would be a total bolt-in. If the 6 is a 250, just use the mounts you have now. If it is a 292, you will need to replace the passenger side frame bracket and bolt the new one in the forward set of holes.

Don't swap it out. 350's are common, a dressed out straight six is unique. Check out this 292:

shoei1993 · 08-19-2010, 08:43 PM

Sillyoldman · 08-19-2010, 09:02 PM

B&A of my 327. It's filthy right now but that's where I'm at with it.

72freak · 08-19-2010, 09:04 PM

Here is mine....some new plug wires and she should look a little better!

geezer#99 · 08-19-2010, 09:40 PM

V8's are like belly buttons. Everybody has one. Six in a row is the way to go!!!
