I have this disease that over rides my brain, the bigger the motor the heavier my foot, kind of like every time my elbow bends with an eating utensil my mouth opens. I learned way back it is best to avoid the bigger motors and carrying eating utensils when I don't need to. So I am sticking with the 6 so parts of this 70 year old plus truck does not have parts blowing off from the wind sheer at high speeds. LOL.
I had a friend a few years back with a late 70s early 80s C30 with a 292 straight 6, four speed tow a full size school bus from Fayetteville NC area to Lynchburg SC with a Holmes 440 boom and it did not miss a lick. Don't know how he got away with it on I-95 without getting a ticket. But I bet there were lots of folk that got to see something they had to look twice at and shake their heads.
