There's a lot of advantages to doing that. If you need any help with the rebuild, just ask what you need to know, someone already has done what you are trying to do. Good luck.

Be sure to get over and visit Tom Langdon in Utica, who carries various inline 6 parts for Chev's. He's a character to say the least and an Ex-GM engineer on inlines, but a wealth of knowledge on hopped up stovebolts. | | |
