bought a super cheap slant.

"ran when pulled" always scares me. I have a '74 225 slant six that "ran" when I bought my Duster. Now, it only ran on 5 cylinders, but hey, it RAN. :D So, it ran when I pulled it! And then there's the 318 I bought to replace it. It too "ran when pulled". Of course, it smokes like a pig at a Hawaiian barbecue #-o , but it runs.

I'd happily GIVE that /6 to anyone willing to pick it up. Its the better casting with the additional ribs, and still has a forged crank. Just needs a rebuild. Otherwise I'll be scrapping it just like Okla. No interest in it after several months and several bumps in the parts for sale section.

Here's hoping yours runs well! :thumbup:
