I will get the W500 home on Saturday, and plan to try it out. The Slant Six seems a little on the
weak side for such a large truck, however, gears do wonders. The slant six engine makes for a rare W500, in 1967 only 47 were built.
If it does not have enough umph, I have a 318 Poly or 6.354 Perkins in my autobarn.
I always thought that a 3208 Cat would be the perfect engine for a W500, after seeing this engine used in Larry Cook's W300s.
