AND it runs underwater! And makes like.... 105 hp, or something.......But yeah! Slant six and 4 wheel drum brakes forever!
It makes 175 with the 2bbl, with around 250 Lb/ft of torque. The Hyper Pak, which we had on one of our Plymouths, made considerably more power.
They are also known as "The Leaning Tower of Power"!  Karl
Heck yeah! I forgot who did it, but someone strapped like 4 turbines to a stock Slant Six and it didn't have any mechanical issues. I wanna say it was Gale Banks, but I could be wrong. Anyway you look at it, that is one durable engine! ANd to top it off, it was made in Mexico!
