My favorite v6 myth out there is that they only ever got 5mpg. I just heard this again from a local at the grocery store. I don't even correct em any more. I said that's why it has 3 tanks.
My second favorite myth centers around a 60 Chevy truck I have with a 348. 9 out of ten people who see it all have stories about one they had or an uncle or there dad had one just like it. It was ordered that way. Bla bla bla. I used to correct them. Now I just say bet you wished you kept it. Super rare and worth huge money back east. 50-60 grand.
So I know a 348 could be ordered in a 3/4 ton starting in 1958 or 59, because I have seen a couple of them - not sure about 1960, but I thought you had to move up to the C60 size rig before the 348 was available - what size truck do you have that came with the 348? I guess my 1960 Data Book would say somewhere in it what truck size you had to order to get the 348
