Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
Thanks! It drives great! Does really well at 2500 rpm, especially with the four barrel on it. I'm hardly touching it in fourth gear at a cruise!

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
baddawg65, with you running that Offy set-up and, don't quote me here, Heddman headers, did you run into any issues without running that thermatic dampner flap on the old exhaust manifold now that you converted to long tube headers. Know what I mean? I've read about issues arising with that and seen in an old Chevy pic of an old 50's stovebolt running Fenton headers that had a heater core bypass line running to what looked like a milled aluminum block bolted to the intake manifold. Any suggestions?

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
Sweet T.J. MCCAULEY, it's not going to happen for a while but I'm just getting my ducks in a row here for when I do do the swap over. Also, Druman, Dig the valve cover and the paint job you did.

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
If I was you, I would purchase Clifford's intake and Headers. His intake is open plenum and is better made than the offey(in my opinion). His long or short tube headers are made from 16 gauge metal. Tom Langdon's Cast iron headers are a good buy also. And if you get a clifford intake the water system will be alot easier to hook up than the offy. I can send some pics if you want. Just let me now. T.J. P.s. I posted some pictures in my build thread so you can how the clifford intake water system hooks up.

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
I am hoping a buddy of mine will get some video of it for me. I am taking my
Cam with me. I am also?? going to try and figure out a way to mount it inside for some video. But at the vary least video of it on the track.The is set-up for 1/4 and this is only a 1/8mi. track so are figuring a mid to high 9 pass. which if it was a 1/4mi track should be mid to maybe low 14's on a 10-1 motor mild cam. But anyway I'll post it on my site with the Other Vids I have of it.

I didn't know you were on this forum. I usually hang out in the '67-'72 universe. Just wanted to say "Hey" and thanks. You helped me a with lot of advice when I was building up my 292 L6 @ .030-over, Badger pistons, Crane 260H cam, 1.87? intake valves, Rhoades lifters, Offy intake, Clifford headers, and [after the 390 Holley gave up] an Edelbrock AFB-clone 1404 500 CFM. This in a '68 C/10 Stepside, 292 L6, SM465, 12-Bolt 3.73 rear w/Eaton posi. I went to Pertronix Ignitor II a couple of years ago and it's great. ![]() Cheers, Brian pix:

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
Nice NEWFISHER, Beautifle engine, what kind of rig is it in? Judging by the pic taken from the right of the engine bay, I'm assuming an old tear-drop hood style late '40's to early 50's Chevy.

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
Ain't that the truth. I just wish I had the garage we had before we moved to our new house back in Michigan. Had a shop we restored 3 tractors in that had a helluva woodstove (it'd be -20 outside in the evening and you'd be sweating in the shop in a t-shirt!) and a workbench, plus a manual tire changer for the hay wagon wheels and whatever tires needed R&R.
