I like to do weird things sometimes just for the heck of it but you need to take a hard look at the end product after all your work and dollars spent. You will still have a low rpm engine with siamesed ports and four main bearings. If 6 in a row is what turns you on check out the wicked Aussie 250 Ford 6 and all that is offered with it for go fast. Paint it grey or blue and slap a Bow Tie sticker on the valve cover and you will be time and money ahead. If it must be Chevy then follow Jerry's "Dumb" 4.2 Atlas engine build. With this engine GM finally, after just 65 years, offered a six that a rodder can appreciate.
