who is running a stock slant six

I agree, if I only had one car I would not be running a six but I have enough cars to want a variety. I have a 340 car and a BB car already so why not a sixer.

plus any car person will know the slanty is not just another six cylinder I would like to see a ford or chevy six cylinder of equivalent times hold up to a slant

The Ford 300 six is actually a pretty good engine. But my old '73 Dart with a stock /6 had 354,000 miles on it when I sold it. It ran good for an engine with that mileage to!!
