Hot Rodding The Slant Six - Digging For That Power

We wrap up the porting on our Slant Six head and in the process discover a design issue that can really hurt its breathing.

[@robert9961]

Definitely, don't apologize for taking time with the slant six. I have never had one or been associated with one, but, everything you talked about, in principle, anyway, applies to any engine. I especially liked the tip about relieving the backside of the valve on the drill press with a file. A real backyard trick. That is one aspect of your videos I really appreciate. Anyone can do those things if they apply themselves.Thanks, again!

You are bringing back memories for me a child growing up in my uncle and father's auto shop we done this more times than I care to remember still know all the old school tricks for Chevy Ford and Dodge to make real horse power gains with factory stuff I'm passing this down to my kid now we used very little aftermarket parts the only thing we used aftermarket was cam kits carbs and headers and once in a while a intake and we did well at the track and off-road racing I had the best childhood a kid could have

[@bradleyhannah8713]

Love this slant 6 stuff wish this information was around in the 70s when I was playing slant six.

[@RacerRickxx]

When I was screwing around with a 225 head on the flowbench, I epoxied the floor of the port and raised it as much as possible. Matched a Super 6 intake to it and had it stuff into a 73 Scamp. The valves had a 30 degree back cut them to get rid of the ski ramp, done on an old Sioux valve grinder, and a three angle valve job, done with stones. The car was my daily and was built for gas mileage, and regularly got 31 mpg and ran 16.90's with a stock cam, 904 trans, and 2.74 gear. I had so much more spare time when I was younger apparently.

[@UncleTonysGarage]

Do you think it would be best to raise the entire floor, or just the area leading up to the ramp?

[@RacerRickxx]

@@jerrytee2688 It was my only running car at the time. Got driven in whatever weather there was, summer or winter. I remember driving back home from Ottawa during the 1998 Ice Storm, on ancient G60-14's. These cars are 19 second cars stock, and even the 318 powered ones were only a 16.50 car stock. Gaining nearly 3 seconds in the quarter with just a 2 brl intake added and head work shows how restrictive the ports are in stock form.

[@RacerRickxx]

@@UncleTonysGarage I raised the floor leading up the the ramp, and layed the short side back some. The raised ramp actually seemed to improve the shortside radius by raising the floor. I raised the port as much as I could then slide the intake up higher so the roof of the intake matched the raised roof of the intake port. It also ended up matching he bottom of the port pretty well. It was a stock super 6 intake so its only held on with clamps IIRC. I remember there being some grinding to make everything fit, but it worked. It was for an automotive machining class I was taking at the time.

I like your build. I'm building a ford 302 right now and work with the parts I have, except for the cam. I find your build very inspiring.

[@hotrodray6802]

Keep cam LSA to about 108 for best torque/ scavenging with about 4* advance after timing chain stretch. You'll be happy.

[@olivierroy1301]

I choose a 112 lsa cam with high lift. I also gave it 4 degrees advance. I don't want a rough idle, I choose this cam because I want a clean engine and I must considere it is a efi engine which is sensitive to low vacuum cam and I keep the stock torque converter. Also, I prefer this cam because it won't sacrifice low end torque for high range rpm I appreciate your advice though. I red somewhere that 108 degrees makes for a good race engine.

[@olivierroy1301]

Also, it's not my engine so I'm not looking for most hp as much as I try to make the most with what I have. I'm on a limited budget. I don't have everything to benefit from a higher reving cam.

A chevy LS beehive spring might work in this. The blue set are $90 new (iirc) and have only 90lbs on the seat, but that's the idea of beehives. The varying radius of the spring and the oval shape of the wire takes the place of a single spring and damper and the lower pressure is a lower pumping loss (so more power). They also handle a bit of lift too. Just an idea.

I love the old "buzzin half dozen" engines, no matter what brand they are! I used to build 250/292 Chevys for dirt track racers until the local tracks did away with the class. Right now, I have a dilemma that I hope you can help me with. A few weeks ago, a guy traded me a 77 Dodge 200 4x4 (not sure if that's a D or W), along with some cash, for a GMC 25, because he couldn't get the Dodge to run right. The truck is REALLY solid since it came from out West (to Northwest Ohio last spring). It appears to have it's original drivetrain, 400 engine, 727 trans and Dana axles. It has a Thermo-Quad carb, which, after a full tune up on the engine, I've figured out is the biggest thing making it run badly...sat a long time, gummed up, the whole 9. Cleaning and rebuilding the carb isn't an issue for me. The problem is that the truck I traded him is the one that I built for pulling my 5th wheel camper. I'm sure that I can build the Dodge to pull it too, but, I'm not a Mopar guy, so, I don't know what's available to build a Mopar 400 for max torque down low, while still being able to run down the road at speed all day. Any help you can offer will be appreciated. Even though I'm a GM square body guy, I've always secretly liked these old Dodge trucks too.

[@patrickwayne3701]

Mike Brown those ThermoQuads were STUNNING carbs when dialed in and on cams that were stock or at most RV spec, like the CompCams 268H. Two BIG OLE watchouts with the TQ are loose throttle shafts in the throttle plate, and the phenolic resin middle body has two little 'sumps' on the bottom that hang down into reliefs in the throttle plate.( They LOOK EXACTLY like miniature rear sump oil pans for a model car engine.) These 'sumps' are actually the bottoms of the wells for the transfer of fuel thru the primary jet packages. These things were epoxied to the main body with some sort of white epoxy. This epoxy gets brittle over time with heat and different fuels over the years. If you decide to detail the TQ rather than replacing it with a less tedious version like the Holley spreadbores of the mid eighties that were two piece with the lift off top, you're gonna want to study up on the TQ. Ask anyone who has had a truly dialed in TQ on ANYTHING and they will rave about the UnGAWDLY response and BADASS WHAAAAHOOOOM that alerted everyone within earshot, that a 440 Police Magnum just dropped the blades. For those who really know, it's the sound that the Mighty 440 Monaco made right before clearing the Illinois Nazis off the park bridge in 'The Blues Brothers'. You can indeed, sort the W200 to effectively tote the camper,,, you'll just wanna be really sharp on the TQ.

[@GnarshredProductions]

cool to see you building something different than the same old pushrod v8 stuff. Im a younger guy and into imports so ive messed around with some inline 6 2jz engines and the 2.8L straight six in my datsun 280z also lots of inline 4 cylinder engines. Inline engines are much better balanced than v8's or v6 so they like high rpm's especially the japanese ones. Build them with the most aggressive camshaft you can get stiff valvesprings, a 4 speed manual trans, and shift the thing at 7000-8000 rpm. Need as much airflow as you can get and use high rpm potential to make power.
