Well This is IMO Only but, Supra's and GN make 1000hp+ since early 90's you have to respect them. V6 fbodies- just isn't american muscle IMO american-yes, muscle-no. Its like peps that take making trucks fast. But once again "To each their own"

Bla just cause noone has pushed 600HP out of an Fbody V6 does not mean it can't be done. There are a couple of us looking to hit that soon.
So 500-600HP out V6 Fbody would not change our mind?

Uhh not really, My H/C is at 450rwhp, with a very small nos shot I'd be well over 550+rwhp. -vs- a V6 Fbody having to do twice the work to get to that mark.

I'm not ******* the V6 Fbody owners, its just not my cup of tea.

It comes down to aftermarket part availability. There's alot more aftermarket stuff for the v8's than the v6's which is probably why you don't see that many 600hp v6's.

Agree, Everyday more and more are getting more power out of this little ol V6. I think its badass to see one makin 400+rwhp just not something u see everyday makes it cool.


Ill probably be at the event as long as work doesn't get in the way.

I am going to try and make it even though I don't have my v6 any more. My 1999 v6 was my first f-body and I spent many late nights working on it trying to make it faster. I meet a lot of people that are now some of my best friends because of that car. Even though I have a z28 now, I still miss modding my v6.

not really because they have Hondas/acuras pushing 600hp on stock motor with just a basic turbo kit..

I own a 3.8 and Z28, I also have nothing against the V6 but I like modding the Z better. Just to be a little clearer.
