For all those in the comment section whining about the self imposed limiting, this engine is a mild daily driver. The owner will be thrilled with anything around 250 HP and 400 Ft Lbs of torque. And so would I. It's not going to the drags.

They got the torque they came for. That’s good enough. The components that are still oem in the block won’t be able to handle much more. It’s a cool old school Chevy, not a 2JZ.

I would love to see the potential HP/torque with a better lower end/rods/pistons and head/valve work. Full boost would be cool to see after all modifications, hammer it till it self destructs just to see the rating. ;o) By the way, I love seeing a strait 6 hopped up,,,,,,,v8's are boring after seeing this, thank's!

A buzzin half dozen. Those 292 I-6 engines were torque monsters. Long stroke, small bore. Worked on one out of a large (2 ton) truck that had steel inserts in the piston for the top ring groove, rotator valve spring retainers on the ex valves, & valve seat inserts on the ex valves. Built to take the punishment just couldn't handle much RPM. Truck drivers had a tough time switching from a V-8 to a I-6, they would try to rev the 6 up past the torque range & get frustrated. Just get it up to the mid part of the torque range then shift to the next gear & let the torque do the work. Enjoyed watching this build.

A long-forgotten gem of an engine. In the shop I worked during the 80's and 90's, we built 230 and 250 circle track engines as well as truck engines. Upgrading the flywheel bolts to 1/2 20's is a good idea on these engines. They also need to put a large washer with a flat head screw to hold the cam gear on. With this level of cylinder pressure, they better find another crank and bearings. After 50,000 miles the bearings will be gone. If they didn't put hard seats in the exhaust by the time the bearings are done the worn exhaust seats will take up all the travel in the lifters. Been there done that. I ran a .060 over 250 with 11:1 compression and 3.73 gears 60 interstate miles to work every day in a 1970 pickup.

I built the engine, forged everything, blueprinted and balanced crank, t66, holley terminator with their t body. I also fabricated a badass intake and exhaust manifold. I built the hot side unequal length with the hope of not sounding like something Japanese. It actually worked, with the cam hes running, 6 into 1, super 50 muffler with a cherry bomb as a resonator it's pretty throaty. She made 363 wheel on pump gas through a tremec tko with 3.73 final drive. But, torque, shes at 491. It hauls the mail for a big ol girl.

Nice comment Keith, you clearly know your stuff. I was thinking just a smaller turbine housing as it's being tuned for torque anyway?

[@ironhead2008]

I'd pay good money to see a Pontiac OHC I-6 build like this... Stick it in, say, an earty 70's base model Firebird with a six speed trans...

[@RickBaconsAdventures]

I have the OHC engine but for now it's gonna go into a squarebody truck to test it. Starting with a buick T type turbo, we'll go from there. I have already done some testing with the pushrod chevy with good results. All draw through though, I prefer it. There are a couple videos on my channel of some pretty basic tests with the pushrod engine. I'm hoping to get started again on the project soon as I have just finally moved my shop

I'd think those would be just a little on the rare side now a days. Unlike the 292, 300, 225 & 4.0, they didn't build millions of them. Technology has finally caught up, as in semi- affordable, and made Turbos a legit option. We've always known they're the great equalizer. The means to control them was just so out of reach.

[@JoeRocket-sf6qs]

The air from the turbo has minimal compression,an inter cooler does help but it’s advantages are well overrated,a bit of extra cold side piping will serve the purpose.

What??? Amish Mike not wanting to break 400hp, this years breeding season must have left him very fatigued!!!

[@txnetcop]

That 292 is now Beast Material! NICE...it will make an awesome daily driver on that C-10!

Jezzzz pat. You got enough pens?

[@stephenmckee6439]

I would like to see y'all guys convert a in Line 6 into a diesel. That is the closest gasoline motor you can get to being a diesel. The fuel gets pretty heated but exhaust manifold like a diesel. And it has timing gears like a diesel

[@gentilejoshsaved1646]

I thought that thing was going to shoot off the screen.

[@luciankristov6436]

Can't wait until they boost the ford 300 i6

[@tdmfan750]

I'd love to see y'all do some work with the 4200 I6, since a certain network that shall not be named requires a subscription to watch more than 5 minutes of their video on them. (if you know, you know.)

[@SGTJDerek]

You and me both. I used to watch all their shows but when I couldn't even get Logged in for the free trial, tried creating a profile a couple of times, I said the hell with it.

[@jesseskidmore264]

You forgot all the the agricultural applications. Both our Gleaner combines had 292's in them.

[@archangel20031]

@ 13:26 Graph shows 425 ftlbs Then he and the screen caption claims over 509? @ 13.26 Graph says 330 HP Then he and the screen caption claims over 376?

[@docjnsn73a]

I saw that too

[@formerfarmer1718]

Hey guys. The first combine I owned was a Massy Ferguson 410 with (get this) a Chevy 292 in-line 6 as power plant. It never wanted for power!! BUT it did like gasoline! I had a 48 gallon gas tank and I normally would put two tanks a day through it‼️ But it did the job………👍

[@yeetisthefetus7214]

It kinda did sound like a skyline motor

[@jeffweaver7011]

"Shut your trap" LOL Seriously though, I have to agree with you.

[@yeetisthefetus7214]

@@jeffweaver7011 haha yeah it is very very close to it. Like if you had that truck next to a skyline and they both reved and I didn't know what motor it was I wouldve said it has a skyline motor in it

@@yeetisthefetus7214 I mean Toyota did use the family member of this engine in their cars. Not that that means anything lol just a fun little tidbit

[@jdrok5026]

@@yeetisthefetus7214 yeah the Toyota variant is between the 250 and 292 in a lot of ways kinda a hybrid motor that is weird

Turbocharged Chevy straight sixes are very common in Brazil, we have plug n play turbo kits for them here.

I really enjoy watching all the details and build process you guys put in your videos. Hats off men, keep up the good work.
