can anybody tell me about a chevy 366
The 366 is a big block V-8. It’s also known as the 6.0 (liter). It was built and installed in medium duty trucks and in school buses from the 1960's until the mid 1990's. Bore is 3.935" and stroke is 3.760" and it is a tall deck motor. It is a decent truck engine, but not much hot rod potential.
Use it only if you are plumb out of money and need a motor badly. Just my opinion.
Been told they make a hell on wheels twin turbo engine.But as said$$$$$$$$$.
All the weight and size of a big block with the displacement of a small block. They are a dog in a truck! A "Leverite", leave 'er right where you find 'er!
Thanks for that. Funny stuff.:LOL:Quote:

The LS2, which is also a 6.0l, is considered a small block in some quarters. Is this the motor you're referring to? :confused:Quote:
