Bruce, I dont have a clue about those straight 6's, but I like the way youre thinking.
Figure the better tuned motors here are putting out close to 1hp/ci, so I would think that 150-170hp would be attainable if parts are readily available. ------------- |

There's actually a web site for these engines, (16,000 members, who would have thought?). Pretty good info on it. I was able to find out that my engine's probably a '64 and that the redline is 4400, for some reason that info is not in the Interceptor manual.
