Dad, don't paint us all w/ the broad brush!! grin
if you're looking for info about the 216/235 6's, there are few books [none current I know of] specifically aimed at them, but Peg\'s lit list is a good start to find something that'd be useful for ya - Brownell's and Gunnell's history books are both good for general info on the old trucks

there's lots of info on the net, especially here, where lots of us enjoy passing on our knowledge [ocassionally w/ some attitude] and yes, also the the inliner site , and the vintage Chevy club can be useful - and here\'s a little history on the "real" stovebolt 6, before it got confused w/ all the later CI 6's
