OP says V6 but I've bought a 253ci V8 VH for $250 I think it was once, drivetrain was alright but body wasn't... could get an old school V8 (if lucky 308, if not 253), would the 4.2L VH be quicker than the 3.8L VN?

All stock blue motors were slugs - especially the 4.2. Your grandmother would have more balls.

VP Executive R-spec
V6 or straight 6 :)? you said 6 last time, the only V6 to have for such a job is the lightest VN in the best condition you can find, but no doubt you will both end up with the exact same car if those are the rules since there's really only the one option in V6's. If not a VN then a VP but they are usually slightly more expensive. A striped out EA MPI Falcon manual should be able to beat a striped out Auto VN but it would still be close

LOL yeah, if it's V6 rules, then you're both looking for a cheap VN :p And that's the end of that.
