Anybody consider a V6 swap?

Well, it's nice to see a /6 flag waver, but, I'm sorry to everyone here, the slant 6 engine bot just plain out sucks, it blows and it's the biggest peice of crap I have ever had the mis-fortune to drive a car with.

Not one of the 6 I have had the displeasure of driving ever came within 50% of the mildest hype I have ever heard or read.

IMO, a modren V-6 gets better mileage, twice the torque and will go reallly far between tune ups. Even if you used an ealry 90's V-6, that is lower on HP and torque than the current replacements being used, your still ahead of the game big time.




I'm sorry, LOL, what nit whit would modify a /6 to hunt a HEMI?
Bwa ha ha ha haha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha haha ha ha ha ha ha.
The expens of everything listed to upgrade a /6 is just as expensive or cheap, whatever as vs. a S/B or B/B and will get 4x's the power of that leaning tower of lameness.

A modern 6? Lets see. Mine got 30 mpg's in a 3500 lbs car while mantaining good power at all levels, while traveling with the car full of people going on vaction.

I never looked into such a swap or if a FWD engine would do it easy enuff, but NOW that I see this, I think I'm going to piss off a few purists and flag wavers. Stay tuned. One day this just might show up on ForAbodies only!!!!!!!!!!


Usually you know what you are talking about,but your brain must be on vacation.

What nit wit would modify a slant to go HEMI hunting??? Are you soft? Ever heard of tom drake? Running into the 9's. I would call that hemi hunting,and I would not call the man a nit wit.

Ever seen the You tube vid of Shaker223? Ran a 12.95 @ 104 in a 71 Dart,full street trim,stock engine(only mods are o rings and copper head gasket),2.93 gears WITH 6 INCH WHITE WALL STREET TIRES!!! Oh yea 22 lbs. of boost on stock rods and pistons,he sounds like a real nit wit.

What engines do you have in your Mopars? What kind of 1/4 mile times? Did I mention Shaker223 drove to the track 100 miles,raced,and drove home with an average 19 m.p.g? My bone stock SRT-4 Neon would average about the same on race day,and less once I went with a bigger turbo.

Leaning tower of lameness? Dont be such a Grumblefish
