If you want bottom end torque, spend a few hundred bucks to get a 292 to start with. That way you still get your inline 6 fix. The 292 is a torque monster. I have one that came out of a dump truck. The guy used to drive the dump truck loaded with dirt, and pull a backhoe with it. That's plenty of torque there.
