I've been doing a search on the 366 chevy BB engine. All of the info I've found so far on this subject is about using 366 for high performance. That's understandable, this is a hot rod forum... My question is I've come across a school buss that is going to be turned into a river camp "camper". Is this a reliable engine. I don't much about big blocks I've always been a small block fan. Any info or links on this subject would be appreciated.
Thanks

there are many 366 truck engines they have the smallest bore of all the big blocks a good engine and like all the chevy big block are a tough engine. some like the 366 tall deck and some like the 427 talldeck better in stock form .the 427 tall deck is the block that can be made to a 526 cid so this is the one that gets used for a hp build up
In your bus it will be great. The 366 has all the strength of a big block, with power output more like a smallblock stocker, but with more bottom end. As a result they run forever.
Great truck motor.....................They don't rev, but in a truck, don't need to.
