The Chevrolet I6 engine made from 1962-1990, in displacements of 194 - 292 CID, is an installation possibility into many "long hood" Jeeps, including the CJ series, J Series, FSJ, M715/725 and YJ. They are good, solid motors. Individuals researching their installation should know that they have the same block / bellhousing pattern as the Small Block V8 series and therefore share the same transmission compatibilities as listed elsewhere on the Novak website. These engines were also GM equipped with angled engine mounting brackets that emulate the factory Small / Big Block V8 mounting bosses, and thus, will use the same Novak V8 mounts.

As these are longer motors, they do not install well into early CJ Jeeps. Also, the installer should consider that these engines do not generally enjoy the fuel economy or powerband as similarly displaced Chev V8 motors like the 283 through 327 Small Blocks.
