Some good sounding 6 bangers....

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
 

Well I bought a better quality HEI for my 292..its from Speed Master off ebay. Capable of 7,000 RPM and has a 65,000 volt coil...and with the big carb..really burns the fuel nicely...I am running Napa premium 8 MM wires. I reved the motor to 4700 RPM when I shifted to 3rd!!!! :metal: Almost to 5000!!!! YEAH! lol! Anyhow...here's a picture...videos to follow soon. :chevy:

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
 

Some really good looking L6's.

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
 

The 250 in my 66 GMC short bed . Equipped with a offenhauser intake and valve cover, hedman hedders. It had a holley 390cfm four bbl. but if you don't open the 4 bbl up the gas in the rear fule bowl turns to varnish and gums everything up. Ask me how I know? So I put a 2bbl Rochester from a 283 chev on it. Its backed by a power glide trans.

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
 

Well..that's why you floor it so the secondaries open up and let the old fuel out and fresh come in...I do that with my 292 now since I have the 600 on there. Once I get going I will leave the pedal at the floor for awhile and let the secondaries clean out. No issues yet. :mm: Nice engine you have! I like the 2 barrel idea. :chevy:

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
 

Yea Back in my younger days I constantly exercised the secondairys on everything I drove. This corn gas we have nowadays go bad really fast. Ive found that all I can find is resistor type spark plugs. And point type ignition is too weak to fire a resistor spark plug with the sorry gas. So I install a HEI distributer on everything I drive. I prefer a carter AFB carb for a 4 bbl. They have float bowls on each side that feed both the primarys & secondaries.

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
 

Yeah, I am running an Edelbrock 600 on my 292 and it runs great. :chevy:

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
 

Sounds Dang Good for what you say it has for compression.

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
 

Yeah..for having only 95 pounds of compression and a chewed up cam its does darn good. lol Its really good for a cruise at 2500 RPM. Fun lil motor. :chevy:

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
 

Is that chain for torque purposes? Never seen that setup before.

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
