Re: Inline 6 is really tired
You got 5 speeds.
Use them all to go anywhere.
If you need to run in 3rd up a long grade it won’t hurt the motor.
Changing to an automatic won’t help. Will be worse. An automatic uses about 25 to 50 hp to work. That’s 20-50 you can’t afford to lose.
A big 305 v6 isn’t worth it. Tuff trans hook up. Hard to find too.
I’d look for a nice sbc. Anything from a 283 to a 350.
