Sweet. V6 runs pretty good Brother.

Your front wheels really could use some mothers wheel polish.

Wow you have been racing that car for a LONG time. I remember watching what you were doing with your car when I had my V6 Firebird about 6-7 years ago. What have you done to the bottom end?

Bottom end?

Hee hee, stock

Cam = stock
throttle body = stock

The heads and intake are ported (mainly for the nitrous)
I also have 1.8 roller rockers.

You would think I have more done to the engine..... it is all in the suspension, drivetrain and weight redux/ relocation

More power too ya. Having a stock internal V6 running that fast is pretty impressive. I would say a forged bottom end and a 200 shot would REALLY get the car moving though

I'd LOVE to see what a 150-200 shot would do!

I'm still having fun with the v6

Thanks!
