Super 6 Vs 5 Litre 8

[danja]

As a general rule, factory boosted engines are cheap to upgrade, at least at the start. They'll almost always have strengthened internals to handle the higher compression, and usually they are stronger by a fair margin, so they'll handle a bit of extra boost without any worries.

Like Stealthy says, whack on a smaller pulley and straight away you can have an extra 40% boost for a couple hundred. You wouldn't get the same gains on an N/A engine for such little money.

Agree with Stealthy....For power with minimal money outlay the L67 is the go.

Yeh, a 5 litre sounds great but who wants sound without the power to back it up? Thats also coming from a person with 2 5litres, but both are only cruisers....

ME, hence why I bought 2

For something to just cruise around in and have a car that sounds nice, then for sure go the 5 litre, there is no doubt a 5 litre will go fast but they require a fair amount of coin to get them there....

Hell, i love my 5 litres and am a huge fan of them, but bang for buck L67 all the way...

Holden V6 are pretty junky and sound ****. No way in hell I would own a 6 cylinder commodore besides the VL. V8 dude.

Is a VT SS series 2 out of the question?

Well if you're after power they're essentially tarted up 350chev.
