Default Why and how, the Slant Six

Vince 23, I have read all the posts about your problems. Did you give up? Are you still considering going to a wedge engine? Please reconsider. I had a 1970 Duster 225 that I put seven years of my time and money into to achieve the ultimate "Can't believe that a six" car. Was well worth the effort. Many rewards. First, see if you can get a copy of Chrysler Corp. Manual # (Listed as Part Number) P349340. Excellent guide written by the legend, Carrol Shelby. I lived and breathed this "Bible" as well as a lot of help from the man that was responsible for putting the Slant Six in Nascar, Lloyd Purcell. If you can obtain and read this manual, it would be well worth your time. It will make YOU the one that knows what they are talking about and give YOU the right to challenge to question what ANY mechanic is telling you. Knowledge is power. If you cannot find this manual, I could possibly print the Slant Six section from it for you. You MUST understand this one rule that ALL my mechanics teachers repeated to me time after time. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THE TIME TO DO IT RIGHT, WHEN WILL YOU HAVE THE TIME TO DO IT AGAIN? Don't throw good money after bad. Take previous advise. Stop, take a breath, and decide what you want to do. Once you have made that decision, you have a LOT of help here at this website. I have been in touch with some very knowledgeable people on this website, even as a new member. I offer my help, they probably will too. Best wishes. Keep the faith, Brother. There is a reason why it is called the venerable six. Thanx, Glenn.
