Hello everyone. I'm in the process of restoring a 66 coupe with the inline 6 and plan on doing the following. I've read many articles on rebuilds and think I have a plan.
I'm thinking of having a machine bore the engine .020 over, putting a clifford cam and headers in it with dual exhaust.
I've read many articles on putting a later model 250 head, milling it down to work with a 2 barrel carb and putting that head on the original block. The real question is, I see where I can buy remanufactured 250 heads at several places but will they fit? Just trying to confirm what heads would work that I can but remanufactured. I saw the Australian heads but didn't wanna spend $2 when I can buy 250 heads for $300-$400. Thoughts?
