Some rookie questions

Its probably just me... I have NO luck with slant sixes, but I say pitch it in a ditch and get a 318... I have one just put in my 66 Barracuda, turned over just fine 2 weeks ago, even fired and ran for a few minutes, now can't get the starter to even turn it over ad need a 3 foot cheater pipe on a ratchet to turn by hand. Thats it, I done rantin, some people love them, me, naw you can keep it if you want, I won't have one.


Sounds to me like somone forgot oil. I have ran the imortal dog crap out of mine after it started smoking and cant get it to stop running. If a slant locks up or blows up its normally a owner issue not an engine issue.

For a cheap performance upgrade get a super six setup and a split manifold or headers or set of dutra's and you will notice a big performance increase.
