Hey all,
I'm a new guy here. I have been lurking around learning stuff for a while and decided to join up and ask some new guy questions.
I am in the process of buying a 1966 C50. It is a straight six truck with a four speed and single speed rear.
My new guy questions are:
1.) Would this be a 292 six? The seller said it was a 231, and maybe he was thinking about a 261, but as far as my research has shown that motor was not offered in this era of truck.
2.) Gear ratio in the rear end. 6.14 or somewhere in that range? Cruising speed about 45 or so?
3.) Truck weight. This thing has a pickup bed on it. How much are we guessing that it weighs?
Thanks for any help!
Brian
