New to the forum. Just recently discovered it. Looks to be a lot of good information here!
Purchased a '51 3100 this summer. Pretty rough shape at the moment. It had been sitting for quite a while. We (my son and I) got the old 216 running, but only to find we had a burnt exhaust valve on one of the cylinders. Cylinder head's off now with parts on order. Not wanting to get too many $ into this 216. Would like to possibly upgrade to a 235 this winter.
Looks to be a plethora of information on this forum, which I'm sure will come in handy. smile

Hi piper51, glad you chose to join us. We're just a bunch of old truck lovers helping other old truck lovers.

It's good to see that you want to keep an old stovebolt six in the old girl. You may also consider getting a 261, same block, a lot of us are quite happy with those engines.

Hope the two of you can get the old beast roadworthy in the near future and when you run stuck, just visit here and ask.

Leo
