    Re: Lt. Dan and other 300-6 cylinder fanz....watch dis!!!!

    The pre Turbo numbers looked pretty good, I would like to see the power curve for that combination. It would make a nice cruiser motor for an old F100,and you know the motor is stout and would last a long time if it held up to the Boost.
    I know a lot of folks don't like the inlines for different reasons, but I like the sound and the smooth low RPM torque delivery. I would love to build a 65-66 F100 with this motor and a 5-speed as my errand runner.

    Now, if my 250 pulled 3/4 of those numbers and sounded like that, FOR LESS THAN MY 331 COST, I would be interested.  But, I am not afraid mine is going to blow up every time I floor it.  

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.

    That was impressive.   Would be great to know how long one could live under those conditions.

    With 7 main bearings, probably for quite a while.

    Think there might be a failure elsewhere first…like a piston.

    Piston upgrade would be easy if that's all it took to make it last.
