Got a question for you guy's. Who here has owned or driven an old mid to late 60's Nova, Chevy truck, Ventura or something with a inline 6 in it, and what did you think of the torque it made? Once I get a couple of responses I will post a couple of pic's I took and get your thoughts again. I had a 71 Ventura with the 230 inline 6 I drove for a couple of years with one, and was really surprised with the amount of torque it made especially with the 2 speed. Let me know your experience if you have any. I am going somewhere with this so bear with me here.

My 64 Dart 225 was zippier than my brothers 67 camaro 250 both 3 spd sticks. That said, I'd love to do a OHC 6 Pontiac in a first gen with turbo and efi with some aftermarket rods etc.. Too bad the Pontiac head didnt have the exhaust on opposite side of intake.

Maybe that could be your next cylinder head project??? POHC6TTF lol ! Move over Toyota!
