Inliners International Forums General Discussion Engines Best chevy motor to build for show

I'm beginning a frame off on my '59 fleetside which has a newly rebuilt 235/3 speed with 3:38 rear. I want to put together a six that will really draw attention when I pop the hood instead of the 350 crate that is sooo prevelent. It'll be a weekend driver so dependability is an issue. I know it's not going to be cheap and I won't get to the engine for a year or so but I need to get a plan together. Without getting too crazy, what would get your attention and is there a builder in California I should talk to? Thanks!

No matter how much you spend Or don't spend It's ALL ABOUT DETAIL One thing on any L6 That will Grab the eyes of any on Looker Is multi carbs, Chrome, an so On. Like I said It's ALL about Detail
Hope this helps.}[oooooo]

I would get a 261" and build the 'Cadilac' 6.

You can check with Langdon's for all the "how to". Then do like Larry said; "make it pretty"

Good luck, John M..

nothing looks better than a multi weber'd jag 4.2 liter twin cam 6 oooowee!!

What about A BLOWN I-8 !
You Dont see many inline 8's !

If you want looks, either the Jag or the new Vortec 6 with the entire motor polished!
