I like that notion. Just the fact that no one seems to build anything with a 283 anymore is reason enough to do it. I've many times built a street rod in my head with that engine in it...
My uncle built a 65 el camino with a high winding 283 in it.that rig had plenty of go.
He was one of the only guys i knew who could shift his muncie without a pause in the black stripes. But then again he was one of the only guys i knew who blew multiple muncie cases apart
You say that as if its a bad thing!
... but OK, how about a Cat D6600?
Well , you can say one for sure , a D6600 has 60 max h.p. out of 623 c.i.d and weighs 3260 lbs.
So, in comparison a Jimmy 351 V - 6 is a freakin Formula 1 engine !!!!

Let me guess , the counter shaft would blow through the bottom of the case . Don't ask how I know ....

So there ya go, grab that 351!!
The D6600 is also hella tall, what with an 8 inch stroke - might even come up above the roofline! Wouldn't THAT be a sight?
A rowdy cam and these might piss off a Karen or two at Starbies.

And now I want to party with a MoPar RB. See, this is my problem.
Dreams don't cost anything. It's reality that gets expensive!

Damn right, we were discussing keep receipts for your Jeep project for insurance purposes and the married guys were laughing about sharing the true cost of things with their SO's.
Don't tell anyone that, 307 has a bad rep.
I've always heard nothing but negatives about both the 307 and the 305. As I've never been a follower of that branch of GM, I only "know" what the Bowtie Boys have told me.
I had one of these boat anchors in a '76 Camaro. It was shit.
There are some things we can all agree on...
That's certainly new to me. It is time for me to learn again. What are the heads? And why 3 belts?
