6.0 not quite running right

Lol, 6.0. my mind went right to an LS.

That's what happens when it is posted in the G-Body LS Swap thread.

if the wagon looks decent and you give me a good price. I might consider buying it from you and then you need not to worry about it anymore. I even will also consider buying it as a roller. you can then keep the 6.0 SBC that is better than an LS.

Please send me some pictures.

Well it least it is not the baby 6.0 big block in there.

Supposedly those 366 c.i.d BBC's had a forged steel crank that was the same as for a 427. Dad had several of these engines in medium duty (C65, C70) trucks when I was a kid. He was an independent distributor for Borden's milk. Those engines would pull.

I believe the 366 BBC did all come with the 3.76 forged crank but the rest of the engine was far from anything from the performance world with a small bore of 3.935 and low compression tall deck block using a 6.135 rod on a heavy piston with 4 rings and reeving that baby up to a max of 4,500 RPM and you get the bonus of adding the weight of a big block without the benefit of adding cubic inches.

Yeah, don't get me wrong. It was just a truck engine. It did that job well though.

The one I had seen was in a late 60's dump truck, I was surprised to find they made a version of these into the 90's but like you said they did what they were designed for well.

After reading this thread, I need answers from OP hahaha. 5.38, that has to be a typo or a joke. Going to Moab with those low gears? What transmission? If it’s not a troll thread, I hope you find the guy who sold you that engine.

He forgot to mention he is running some 44" monster mudders back there.
