    Aluminum slant block?

    common problem with the aluminum block was corrosion where the head mates with the block. Electrolysis along the mating surfaces. Service manual stressed the use of antifreeze with these motors. Most people used straight water back in the day. I guess you could get rust from the head.

    Anyone using beehive valve springs on a slant-6?

    Buddy of mine built a hot S6 years ago. I know he used the GM 2.2 liter pistons and pins. Also used the stock dumbbell tappets. Also used a good low tension ring combo. I don't know abour beehives. Seems to me the slant really doesn't rev to warrant using that spring.

    Aluminum Block ?

    Not many aluminum blocks made it into 62's. A dead giveaway is that the aluminum block has no freeze plugs. Look for a cast in ID pad on the drivers side of the block just above the oil pan rail.
