-No I never heard that..... I wouldn't believe that for a minute! Reason? look at the old ORIGINAL Mopar "A" Poly-Head engines. the HEAVY "wide blocks"..... THEN take an look at a Mopar "LA" block. they're really close the same! EXTERIOR-WISE they're VERY CLOSE. The oil filter isn't how GM would...

Pishta you'd be sort of right....... the Hemi 6 was a 6 cylinder that WAS to replace ALL the Slant 6's and become a truck motor in the US, and was stopped and Chrysler Australia took on the project!

Any pics of the engine with the car? That paint job is SWEET!!!!!

Yeah the OP was asking about a "265" in the USA they don't exit here. Those were Aussie Hemi 6 cylinders.... there was a guy I read importing them from Aussie to the USA in California somewhere, but I can't recall his name! BUT to add to this, you had a couple Australian Mopar straight 6...

The Slant looks GREAT...... Love the valve cover dress-up!!!! Was it turbo'd? It looks as tho it was..... The overall truck is painted to the 9's!

-DAMN.....theres a couple of NASSTY lookin /6's pictured here......

:happy1: :happy1: :happy1:

That damned Detroit Diesel Green is a ***** to find 'round here.......... WHERE do you get it from? And if I may ask, whats the the damage for it per can? Spray can right? I have to plan for things at times as money is tight! :violent1:

Thanks for those who answered and or posted pics to answer my questions............. I learned something today with all this! I KNOW pre-1970, slant 6's for the most part NOT all of them were Chrysler Engine Red. AFTER that they were mostly again NOT all of them were Chrsyler Engine Blue till...

Question, can ANYONE take this video and get "still" shots of this intake?

I second the comment on pics would be nice! Get them and the intake in the mail yet?

GAWD that rumble sounds GREAT and knowing its a Slant 6 is just down right impressive!

Stuck heat valve ONLY in the closed position tho....A stuck open one should allow the passageway to be unrestricted, right?

It could be that too, the Holley 1920 was known to be a crapper single barrel, and the Rochester 1 barrel was to be half decent....BOTH are very fickle if not adjusted right Altho, the Holley seems to have the most issues with it, that are known.... A lot of times, the stock settings on a...

yer buddy that burns through tires, he got the SAME slant 6 set up, you do? HIS might have a 4 barrel on it, and makes a world of difference on a slant 6.....That make his a super-pak 225, OR, what was the other one? Hi-Po 225???? There is a bit of difference with them depending on the carb set...

NICE engine rebuild! Moving, holy ****. all the way across the country! Thats going to be a shock, when your in NYC! Prepare...........for the coming winter LOL its a really cold hell in NYC. and you'll be SOUTH of me so I ain't got much room to talk here! LOL

....I was gonna mention the balancer seal, it is puking oil from there, or how it sounded, the seal itself, however would NOT leak coolant tho....UNLESS there is a stress crack, or a bolt pierces the coolant cavity of the block....No coolant leaks around the head? Intake?, How about the...

I have ta say that Slant does sound good....... even when he "romped" on the throttle linkage a little it still sounded good! BAD *** Slant 6 you betcha! I just wonder with the intake, what sort of HP that gives that 225?

Thanks Dan! The colors of the Slants at least were consecutive and wasn't "in-question" as much as the remaining Mopar engines were.....No matter what, if you have a '77 slant 6, it was blue no exceptions, from factory. these sort of things are GREAT to know! This will be useful when I'm out in...

....the slant 6 out runs the 318? AKA "Not amused"

Dan, THANKS I has assumed that the 198 and 225 were identical, BUT I wanted to know if my assumption was correct. As for the 198, this one I was and am still unsure of.... As for them all, all 3 of them, were they normally in the same year painted the same color? I ask this as the engines...

OK besides all the technical stuff, (I know of a few examples) is there ANY "visual" ways besides the block coding, to know which slant 6 is a 170, 198, or the 225? I ask as I know of a few locations of the block not able to "look" for casting numbers and was wondering if there is an easy way to...

Just the fact of it being done to fit, and we all know thats "custom" so.....PLUS, it was chromed too!? You know the guy that done it loved his car!

I'd love to see pictures of that on either side just for the sake of "how" it was done!

1930, What type/year of truck are/is this slanty going in to be 6000 pounds?

Well that intake for a slant 6 is definitely a different one! So as it looks first 3 "tubes" fed by one carb to the first 3 cylinders, and then the last 3 "tubes" feed the last 3 cylinders? Wonder how that works/runs/ produces some different power ratings....... Interesting speculation, and I...

...went into a lot of trouble to fit that slant in that Durango. Not sure I understand why, maybe all the guy had for a motor. I kinda like it tho!

I'm not planning on getting stupid with those I have planned to do either, just smooth out the ports and maybe a bit of polishing and all as the guy just what them cleaned up a bit, I'm not even adding in larger valves, just going to re-fit new factory size valve to the head so.....I ought to...

I'm going to be rebuilding a couple heads for a local guy to go to the 2 Mopars hes got with Slant 6's in them so, I'm following along, not the first time I've played, but....it has been awhile so, a refresher won't hurt any!

MD, LOL funny! Nahhh....not as delivered from the foundry, but "delivered to the dealership" is more like what I'm looking for! Sadly, I haven't gotten to the 2nd \6 valve cover, or the set of 318 valve coveres, BUT I will, I got one \6 looking pretty damn good! (I'm going to see about getting...
