  • Check out Ron and Kim Plender's show quality '50 Chevy 3100 pickup! The couple made the 800 mile, 11 1/2 hr trip from Box Elder, South Dakota to Byron, Il., to compete in the 2nd Annual Glory Days 2020 Event at beautiful Byron Dragway! Upon first glance I noticed the rollbar exiting the rear window, so I assumed it was probably running a small or big block chevy. To my surprise it had the inline 6 cyl engine. This is no ordinary 6 but a 292 bored 60 over to 301c.i. with an aluminum 12 port head, and mechanical Hilborn fuel injection fed by alcohol. Ron transports the power via a Jerico 4 speed (3.19 first gear) to the ford 9" rearend with aluminum Moser carrier and 4.89 gears. Ron and Kim have owned the truck for 17 years while taking 6 years to build and have been racing it now for 11 years. The first 7 years it was ran on race gas and the last 4 on alcohol. Mike Kirby from Sissel Automotive in CA., built the engine plus provided invaluable assistance. The truck set the National Record ET/MPH record for C/Gas Inliner's International in '10 at Oahe Speedway with a 11.602@114.91mph. To date the personal best pass to date is a 10.94@119mph! #glorydays #sleeper #trucks

    Right on dude! My dad had a chevy coupe when I was young, straight six in it with a driveshaft offs truck for a sidepipe and, that car was stupid fast. Nice to see some people still know how to MAKE power, rather than buy it.

    • @peteloomis8456
      @peteloomis8456 Před 3 lety

      Probably custom made or something built by Clifford 6=8 who makes a bunch of go fast speed parts for inline 6s . This is neat as hell but I can tell you that he has way more money in this 6 than it would cost to build a solid V8 because 6s aren't cheap to make power with . I had wanted to build one at one time then looked into it further & it just didn't make sense to spend that kind of money on one when you could build a small block or big block that will make way more HP and torque for less money . There is a guy on here some place on CZcams who built a 71 Plymouth duster with a turbo slant 6 that I actually seen at a Mopars in the park car show just 2 years ago that supposedly runs 9 second ETs so when set up properly they can go like hell but it's not cheap to do it because most of the problems with most of the inline 6 are the heads don't breath very well even when done up & that kills power so this is one of the reasons this guy's 6 goes so good because it's a custom built head that's far from a stock type head from the factory & who knows what other mods done to the bottom end to lighten the rotating assembly so it revs harder ( custom crank rods & pistons ) .

      Also the 6 in the 50 is not all that trick to go fast, one thing you miss is the 292 chevy 6 makes big block torque & torque is what moves things and they will rev without alot of work they have 7 main bearings
