I found out your engine was considered "Durable, affordable, and powerful for their day, early Chevy six-cylinder engines are often referred to as the "Stovebolt" or "Stovebolt-Six" because of the 1/4"x20 slotted-head stove-bolts holding down the valve cover, lifter cover and timing cover."

In conclusion the reviewer wrote "The Chevy Stovebolt-6 is one of the most durable engines ever built - simple and efficient, and capable of making more power. They are easy to work on, easy to maintain, and can be dressed up quite nicely with an aftermarket valve cover and chrome air cleaners.
