I think you might be close to right. I remember that back in the 50s
the trick setup for a Chevy 6 sedan was to swap in a GMC 6. I think
the Jimmy was sort of a bolt in but had better ports and much better
oiling. The Chevy 6s had some kind of splash oiling untill sometime in the
mid 50s and had a reputation for not staying together when hopped up.
