223, tire size and diff gearing

Well you also need to purchase the Performance Cam they offer, Port & Polish the Head, do a 4 Angle Grind on the Valve Seats, Harden those seats, Install Over Sized Swirl Pattern S.S. Valves, Install High Lift Performance Rocker Arms, etc.

Just so you don't get the idea that the 223 I-6 isn't already a goer.
My family towed a 40ft. fully loaded trailer w/ one behind a '60 Ranch-Wagon & Never had to worry about power over long distances.
They also towed a 2 up Horse Trailer w/ a '61 F-100 w/ a Camper in the bed, it had a 223 I-6 also traveling over long distances & Both were stock engines.

My 300 doesn't pull 19,000 lb quite as well as I would like. Reckon maybe it's time to upgrade to a 223 :roll:
Joe

a FAR superior engine! lol

OK OK OK
You are all out of line now. If you want some real pulling power, your money is best spent on a stump pulling 144 falcon six with a 2.83 gear'd 7.25 rear. NUFF SAID
