Why the /6

Since there seems to be a conversion on this engine..

...yup../6s are really popular. Took me almost 2 years to find someone that would take it off my /6 off my hands (rebuilt carb, new gas pump, 34K miles) for free...I even threw in a trans and rear end (with great brakes)...

I suspect that the monies you would pour into the engine to hop it up would be the same to slide in a 360...

I have never seen a crowd around a mopar /6 engine..I guess I haven't lived long enough..

I will believe everything but gas mileage myth...nope...gas mileage sucks with these.. you gallon is smaller than ours to boot..
.
If you are looking for an indestructible 6 cylinder, there was one in the Ford Maverick. I used to see a lot of them on farms...I was told that when no other car would start, this 6 cylinder would..

But each to his own..
