Inline 6 Club?

I have been trying endlessly to find the Inline 6 club or organization. It has a logo with a large "I' next to a numeral 6 in a (red ? ) circle. Does anyone have a lead on this graphic or organization. Thanks for any help.

The logo I saw exists. I probably got to it through a link on an FTE forum. The club is for Ford, Chevy and other less popular sixes.I did a Google search and used other search engines but couldn't find anything.

There is a lot of difference between an inline six and a vee six.

If you have a 4.0 v6 and a 4.0 I-six, other then just plain engine parts, performance wise there pretty much the same

I can't help, other than trying the usual internet search. I will admit... the "Inline six club" sounds familiar. I bet someone will come up with something soon.

Inliners is a pretty neat group, but I don't think that's who you're talking about.

except the 300 is a 4.9. even then a inline 6 shares nothing in common with a v-6 engine.

And the inline six is inherently smoother, produces better torque.

my dads ford ranger has a 4.0 v6...210hp and 230lbs torque.....moms 2000 jeep 4.0 i-six 190hp, and 210lbs torque. theres no differnce in smoothness amoungst them, both are very smooth running. Do you think becase the ranger is sohc make it better, and more powerful then the i-six of its size?
