Re: hei in a 250 six
Any 250 or 292 HEI will work, they make a built in coil ( on top of the cap like a V8 ) and a seperate coil that is usually bolted to the side covers. Just drop it in and run a 12 volt wire from the fuse box that comes on with the key and you are good to go.
I have done countless of these change overs. You can get the HEI out of cars or trucks, novas had 6 cylinders alot.

Re: hei in a 250 six
That shows how much i know about 6 bangers,I thought the v6s and v8s dominated the years of the hei,never knew the straight 6s had them.thank for the info ron
