Building a straight 6 250 is not any harder to do than any other inline 6, be it a Ford or Chevy, GMC, etc. Parts aren't as common for the inline 250 as they are for V8's, but as one will see, there are plenty of info and quite a few suppliers for parts, as well as places that cater to almost nothing but the Chevy inline 6 engines.

The inline 6 Chevy 250 should not be compared to a SBC engine. They share practically no parts w/the V8 engines. Because of this fact, expect it to cost more per horsepower than a Chevy V8. The reward is this is not a "belly button" engine; instead it is considered "old school" and caries cred because of what it ''isn't'' as much as for what it '''is'''.
