    You should be able to find a 292 straight six from a chebbie pickup that would retain the nostalgia of a straight six but have upgraded torque. It, of course, is of the later 194/230/250/292 family but still looks similar to the 216/235 engines of yore.

    The 292 should be similar length as the older 235 and has the same bellhousing bolt pattern as the V8 stuff so your late model transmission choices are wide open.
