Since the Chevrolet 261 shares many parts with the more common 235, it will probably be less expensive to assemble, but the 302 GMC will make considerably more torque. Making serious power with any older inline is much more expensive and requires much more knowledge and skill than ordering a vee-thing in a crate. The later Chevrolet 292 and Ford 300 inlines have greater power potential and the pieces are easier to find, but they are still more expensive, in every way, than a vee-thing. Yet after having seen several thousand vee-things, we begin to realize that they all look, sound, and perform exactly alike. It is a pleasure to see and hear a well-done inline, and an even greater joy to see and hear the inline outperform some of those v8s.
God's Peace to you.
