Some just mentioned it and I figured I better save it here before it gets lost forever at CGP due to the search engine not working.

I think for what its worth a V8 wouldve been a better choice.

But a V6 is an interesting choice. Nice to do something not just different, but WAY different

Well, the nice thing about this V6 project, is that since is appears to be Camaro based, an LSx swap shouldnt' be all that difficult.

After much thought and deliberation, I have decided this man is a genious. He has also caused me to change my plans for a future build. Instead of an L99 TT, an L36 (built of course) Turbo in a 97 Acheiva with a RWD conversion.
