Maybe post in the big bolt section. Do you have a 235? A 235 is a good engine, a 261 is a better one. I'm not suggesting going the v-8 route, but it may provide you with more hp cheaper than a 6 cylinder.
A 235 can be built to put out 200 HP. Usually you will use lighter, higher compression pistons, a hotter cam, a dual or tripple carb set-up... 1 4bbl works well too, headers, and electronic ignition. Ballancing is reccomended, and additional headwork may be in order. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 126 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 126 | Thanks for the direction to the big bolt section.
However I do like to take the more challenging roads than the obvious easy roads. I appreciate the information on the six cylanders. Last but not least, yes I have a 235 in the truck I just purchased. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2004 Posts: 1,897 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Dec 2004 Posts: 1,897 | Cajun, A man after my own heart.
