1970 Convertible

I rebuilt one of those engines in high school.
I didn't torque anything properly or even check tolerances.
It was just slapped back together....... and it ran.

 They really run nice if you adjust the lifters quiet and a nice smooth idle , I agree one of the best six bangers around , I think they even used them in industrial applications as a stationary engine.

Yes, they ran almost silently when the lifters were adjusted. I did a bunch of them back in the day. Something not many folk did when most all engines you saw had zero maintenance hydraulic lifters.

I have seen slant sixes used in many applications. Stationary, liftrucks, even combines.
