Re: 1960 C60 Dump Truck

That 6 will pull the truck around fine, its all about gearing in these old trucks, I have a 65 with a 292 6cyl and it runs great and will carry a heck of a load, but it will only run about 55 top speed, so even if you swapped a 350 in the truck your top end will be limited to what gears you have in the diff.
