Again a 300 CI straight six as they used to be torque monsters but I tried a OLDs 307 and LOST big time power and MPG. And I do not remember Chevy making a 6 that big only Ford.
That is why I am going for a 383, and if I had not already done all that work on my 350 I think at this point IF I was starting over I would do a pure 400.
