Looking to replace the straight six on our 66. I've looked at all the obvious places like eBay. Is there a site anyone know of that sells rebuilds? I just don't think I want to fool with rebuilding what's in there now.

So what is the question? Are you looking to find another straight six to replace the worn out one? Are you looking for a company to rebuild your old engine? Are you looking for a swap kit to change to a V8?

Straight sixes are not very common anymore. Your best bet is find a reputable Engine Shop and have them rebuild it properly. Should give many decades of continued service.

Marshall Blueprint engines does not list Any Ford smaller than a 302.

You can check through Advance Auto from here

Ordering – Spartan Engines

spartan-engines.com
Or from a Napa.
But unless your long block is broken, a local shop should be an easier deal with this age of engine.
