250 vs 4200 - 11/03/10 05:59 PM
Hi, I have a 1983 250 in a GMC truck. I want to keep it a inline 6.
I was going to spend about $2000 on the engine until I spotted this thread:

Now I think spending any money on performance improvements on the 250 is not cost effective.
The 4200 makes more HP stock and gets better gas mileage.
@ efi-diy Do you think your 4200 made more HP than stock with a locked exhaust cam?
