Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

I am here, with my new 77. 6 cylinder auto

Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

I really want one for a daily driver.
Are parts hard to find? What kind of gas milieage are they capable of and with what trannies?

Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

Im getting around 13ish mpg with a 3 speed. Last fill up with a tune up was 13.6 mpg.
Daily driver too.

Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

Couldn’t tell you what the gas mileage is, my speedometer is disconnected. Floor shift mechanism is in the way, it’s on my list.

My 6 is the integrated head 250, but I do have an older 250 head and most all the other parts I need to convert it.

My grill emblem is a 454, I tell folks it is a 454, minus 204.

Mine is sitting on the side of the house, just removed the 250 due to a blown head gasket. Pulled the integrated head off, the exhaust manifold was cracked 2/3's of the way around just in front of the heat riser. Took a good look at the block deck and found a crack in the block about two inches long.:smoke:

Pulled the block and layed it to the side, pulling a 350 from another truck to replace it. First part of the transformation.

In fact my truck is the exact same color as Mr79C10, don't have any pic's as of yet. I guess this is a great time to start.

s10fan--
I know I've said it before, but I really love that truck. That is exactly what I want--an early 70s stepside with a straight six--perfect daily and I need a stepper to complete my collection.
My wife would leave me...

I'll miss her.

Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

nice truck jeff.. i miss my old 250 at times... i'll do another one someday....

Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

Maybe one day someone will put one of those 5 cylinder (in line) with an overdrive. It would be interesting to see how the power and fuel mileage would work out in an old square body. A buddy has a new Colorado with one in there and he loves the power and mileage plus the way it cuts back on the cylinders when not under a load.

S10FAN....what drop is on your truck. That is SWEET!

Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

I'm here. 1981 GMC Sierra Grande. 250 with an automatic and 122,XXX original miles. What is an integrated head?

Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

Inliner for Life. I own a blue flame 235 in my 53 chev car. 250 in my truck. Just got a free 250 with 42,000 OG miles going in this winter. My engine now must have 273,000 shes tried. But daily driven. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2036/...675674024b.jpg

Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

Thanks!

Front = 2.5 Spindles and cut one coil
Rear = Flip and 2" blocks (I need a c-notch)

Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

Head, Intake and exhaust manifold built as one casting.

Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

That's a bada$$ looking truck there, S10. I have a 350 in my '73 that I've never heard run(not sure how good it is). If it happens to be bad, I have a fresh 250 on a stand in the corner of the shop that I'll put in...if need be. I like them old sixes...:chevy:

Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

Thanks! Ya know, I'm a V8 guy to the core but there's something really cool about in-line 6's.

Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

Thanks!

Hey, she'll come back, maybe!

Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

Thanks, I've been admiring your "fleet" since I joined the site!

Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

I like em all, but Old Heap you nailed it....:metal:

Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

man, i can't wait to get my hands on a square body with a six!

i would guess with an overdrive muncie and a set of headers and a clifford performance intake it would scoot! probably get decent mileage too

Re: where are all the 6 bangers?
 

Keep 'em comin! I know there are more inliners here.
