I was looking for a 6cly to pull a bass boat. My mechnic told me there were only 2. The ford 4L and the Chevy 4.3L vortec. He said both were good engines, the ford would get 14mpg pulling the boat or not. I went with the chevy astro van no complants, a friend of mine bought the ford never had a problem but he only got 14mpg. At the time (1992)they were the only high torque 6's. I was wondering if this engine will get better milage now.

I dont think that the 302 is a high torque engine, is the rest of the engines on your list hi-torque.

The reason I asked was the we pulled 20' bass boats and the foreign jobs or the 302 would not hold up. They were lucky to get 60 thousand miles out of them. The 4L ford and the 4.3L chevy 6s were out standing. My girl friend had a slant 6 in a plymouth valaint cant complain about its pulling power or hers.
