The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk What do you prefer a V8 or a Str8 6 ??

I drove my 1954 with a stock 235 engine on a 7,500 mile round trip to New York from Los Angeles. I only had one car pass me, I drove literally all day at 80 to 90 m.p.h. averaged 16.5 m.p.g. I am completely sold on the reliability and performance of a "boat anchor" I-6.
