CHRYSLER SLANT SIX ENGINES
HOW TO REBUILD AND MODIFY
By Doug Dutra
From SA Design
"WORKBENCH HOW-TO" Series
The year 1960 was an
important one in auto manufacturing; it was the year all of the Big Three unveiled
entrants in a new class of car called the compact. Chrysler's offering, the
Plymouth Valiant, was paired with its redesigned 6-cylinder engine entrant, the
Slant Six, known by its nickname the "leaning tower of power."
This engine powered the
Valiants when they swept the top seven positions in the newly christened
compact race that precluded the Daytona 500. With its legacy intact, Chrysler's
Slant Six powered Mopar automobiles for decades to come in three displacement
offerings (170, 198, 225).
Now 60 years old, your
Slant Six could probably use some freshening up. Slant Six engine expert Doug
Dutra has produced this volume to walk you through every aspect of disassembly,
evaluation, rebuild, and reassembly in an easy-to-read, step-by-step format. The
book also covers modifications, showing how to squeeze the most out of your
engine.
With millions of Slant
Six engines built over the 30-plus years that the engine was produced, it's
always a good idea to have this book handy, as you never know when the next
"leaning tower of power" will find its way into your garage.
