    ROFL sounds like an extreme pain in the A$$ for not many benefits.

    Why are you doing that if you dont mind me asking?

    wow punctuation would help, imo its kinda a waste of time, sure you will have more power. but the ratio of effortower gains is pretty shit, why not just get a V8 or rebuild the standard VL engine with a turbo / other performance parts.

    i was going for the ecotec v6 out of a vs commodore because they trustworthy and fuel eficiant(spelling) and do have power,after mods it would have around 300-400 hp and thats what iam after.I also want something diffrent and after full respray and clean-up maybe a summernat or somthing..But i cant drop a v8 in untill iam 24 or something (new P plate laws) and v8 maybe would use a tad more fuel then v6..well thanks for replys.
