Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
283 Man - Not yet Mort, its still in the garage. Got some plans though, its bored 30 over and plan to button it up this yr sometime with the FI. that is the untouched engine in the pic. Ya know i put in the OD and 4.11s last fall right, its even more fun to drive now.
greg64 - the booster was boosted from a 95 blazerSS, bolts flat to the fire wall, had to make a couple mods and the M-cylinder is 1 inch bore unit for the same application. thanks for the info i will do some reading from your link, do you visit the inlines site? thekid54 - whatcha gonna do with the oil bath? thanks for sharing all your inlines folks

They are good engines, but until a proper aluminum head is made for these things, I'm not going to dabble further. A 292 should be able to make 300HP and even more torque, but it's impossible with a stock head (without extensive mods). There may yet be a rainbow, because these guys: http://www.classicinlines.com/home.asp are working on it. Almost makes me want to dabble with the big-block GMC V6s.....

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
I LOVE IT! as I am planning to keep an I6 in mine.
Thanks for the pictures everyone. Greg64, check out Santucci's book on hot rodding the 6, including building an aluminum head out of small block heads! also, if your talking racing heads, check out Al Weiss in Wichita Falls , TX (used to wrench for Eddie Hill's Top Fueler). His highly modified 292 head made 2002 NHRA Comp Eliminator record, see at: www.autoshopracing.net Weiss' car is a unique combination of a '34 Chevy Roadster with a straight 6 Chevy providing the power through an automatic transmission, which puts him in the E/EA category. The class is limited to an OEM production cast iron head, which Weiss points out is the key to his combination. "Truth be told, there is probably a couple of years worth of work in that head," stated Weiss. "We've done so much welding, porting, polishing, and machining on it, its really a one of a kind piece. I can honestly tell you, it was so much work, if something happens to this head, I don't think I would do another one."

Ya, I have Santucci's book. Lots of great info for us 6 cylinder guys. That grafted together head was a neat idea, but looked to be a pile of work. Still, that makes more sense to me than endless labour on the stock head. I'll have a read of your other link, thanks.

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
Not sure if anyone posted this guys (Leo Santucci's) 292 setup. http://www.cdpautomachine.com/leo/leo.html While it is in a Stude, it is still a pretty awesome engine. The work he did on the head alone is pretty impressive and definitely not an off-the-shelf-deal. I have been a fan of 292's ever since I had to change the lifters in my pop's 70 3/4ton- gads, probably 25 years ago now Also, Greg64, as a fan of TBI's I can appreciate your setup- I bet it gives pretty reliable performance. Dual TBI's is do-able, but would likely require some ecu changes- probably additional drivers for the injectors. thirdgen.org and/or http://www.dynamicefi.com/.

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
go back and read all of this post; a lot of the info is in there;
Leo Santucci's book Chevy Inline 6 Power Manual....a must have- has stuff you have never even heard of!. www.inliners.org Langdons Stovebolt http://www.t6racing.org/ clifford engineering.com self racing.com (for race engines) offenhauser intakes are still around, even at Summit PS. I just scored a '75 292 that looks like a solid engine. Can't wait to get done, hopefully in the next year.

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
Hi guys I bought Leo Santucci's Chevrolet inline six-cylinder power manual this is the second edition. I'm disappointed that the only color pages are the front and the back. Does the first edition have color pages inside the covers? I see the first edition costs more so did I get what I paid for Black&white? Vernski

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
Well here it is. Finally got my carb. Gonna get a exhaust system put in sometime next week. This thing sound awesome running straight pipes! Though I got a major headache in the cab while I was driving it. Has a 600 cfm edelbrock. Sounds like a mean machine when you rev it up.

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
For those of you who are running Clifford headers. How did you take out the studs on the front and rear of the head. Having a heck of a time with mine. Thanks.

Re: Tricked-out Chevy six cylinder engines
I used a pair of visegrips and heated it with a butane torch they came right out. My friend Bill welded a nut on the stud let it cool out and used a rattle gun they came out also good luck..Vernski
