he knows james(12secv6) too...But like I said...I'm not trying to be foolishly calling out people. But I'll race Kasey or any who wants to race, not because I think I'll win, I just like racing

honestly, you are not making any friends here. and IMO you opening your mouth is just making it harder for bubba. When he began the project, he was catching some slack, yes, but now that you, being all high and mighty, feel the need to group us all as having "typical v8 behavior", more people will be ragging on him. you are like lethalrides all over again. or you can plan to build a "1000hp t56 street car"... talk all you want. Try as you might, you will not earn any respect here. You can flaunt your fancy 3.4 till your little hearts content, but it dont mean crap to me, nor 99.9% of the people here. You actually make me laugh, like i could stop reading this thread and ignore it, but i need my daily amusement. plus cbrmikes comments are always entertaining. i'm just gonna keep at it until this thread gets locked, which will be soon. typical cali v6'er. lol

ive had 3 cars with V6's...my first was a 91 blazer with a 90* 4.3, had some balls.

2nd was my GPGT, N/A 3.8, 90*...also was pretty ballsy for a v6.

3rd is the current 3.1 60* lumina i have now...and...im not impressed.

summary: 90 degree v6 FTW, 60 degree FTL

well, it is a Lumina... theyre only good for being a beater car and making it to south meets :)

i havent driven it to a south meet, so we'll see about that one

somebody else on the board has my friend

not from north jersey though...thats a hike

the short apears at every one....

lmao.. ok honestly russell, how do you get banned from LS1tech????

and i loved this post....

lol...

i had my 3.4 i ran my 17.0s....i sold it and bought the ta for the SAME price, now i get better gas mileage, and run low 12s on a stock motor....

so everytime someone tells me they want to keep the v6 because the car was cheaper or its better on gas... i know for a fact...its wrong.

and the other argument where you say "i like being different"......theres a reason its different, NO ONE WANTS TO DO IT. and remember, transvestites are different too

:usa: thank you sir

so anyway...90 > 60

drop a 3.8 in that thing if you wanna play with a v6

:threadsu:

Used Car Blue Book Private Party:
Base Coupe / Z28 Coupe
$4,165.00 / $4,895.00
V6 3.4 Liter / V8 5.7 Liter
Automatic / 6 Speed Manual
19 mpg City / 17 mpg City
28 mpg Hwy / 26 mpg Hwy

The difference isn't that big.

welcome alex

i got 4,012 from the insurance co for mine :-P

I couldn't watch anymore of this v8 slander so I had to add.

But for the record I will not use my own car to compare. My cost to performance ratio went down the drain along time ago.

DON'T LOOK AT ME!!!!!....I'm just just trying to save my thread from getting locked....I'm not calling out anyone....

Whoa guys wtf is going on here, listen, if you dont have anyting nice to say, then dont say it ok, this thread was to be about his progress about his car, not trash talkign a hobby he has. if you dont like V6's well then thats your thing, but some do, so stop. Bubba, stop sayign numbers and such, nothings true till its shownb on the slip. to be honest, I doubt youll run a 14 wiht that rear, and setup. so if your going to post on this thread, just talk about what youve done to your engine/car, not what its going to do after it gets done, if it does.black, Im sorry about the rowdiness goign on on this thread, were actually a bunch of cool guys, its jsut that when you start smack talking with a car thats barely been workedo n, and bubba , sorry it is true, your smack talking, your bragging, stop it, cause thats whats makign the V8 guys attack us, were not that bad.

well you do know the 94-95 F-body T-5 has a 3.75 1st gear, so even with a 3.42 i'm got a lot of ummph off the line...I have tried to be clear that the numbers I came up with were just rough estimates. Not trying to be bench racing just giving a general idea

blacdout, kasey, craig, james, and im sure im forgeting some are NOT bad at all.

ive said at least 5 times in this thread i dont hate v6s or peoples projects, i hate people that claim numbers that cant be proven, i hate people that say that they can be as fast for cheaper *when they mean " as fast as a stock one"*

and i hate cocky pos people

you fantabulous 1st gear wont do anything once you shift out of it

just stop talking, make a new progress thread in a tech section, only update it when you actually make some and no one will say anything

I wasn't trying to start all this....It was going fine for a while...I'm not trying to be cocky or W/E you want to call it...i'm not running any major power adders so I'm not expecting much for the first runs...but when the computer is in well see what happens...for now I don't know

Not just those.....93-02 F-body M5s have the same gearing....
