whats a slant 6 worth ?

I couldn't give away the 44K-mile 225 out of my '69 Valiant when the plan to install a 340 was hatched. I'd just done a full tune-up including setting the lash and installing a brandy-new Ignitor in the distributor. The original choke still worked flawlessly. It started and ran like a watch on the coldest days imaginable. I sold the distributor for $90 to a guy building a Lincoln V12 hot rod and finally found someone to let the rest darken their doorstep--if delivered.

I plan to keep the '68 a Slant, but if that changes I probably won't even bother trying to peddle the 170 in it. I have a baker's dozen of more interesting engines taking up shop space. Nobody around here wants one and I doubt anyone would travel to have it.
