Uniqe home for a V6

[some_guy]

I understand that people always want to build a v6 that beats a v8 as some sought of pride thing.

But if pure speed is all you want a v8 is always going to win.

And if your going to stick with the twin turbos then a V8 between those pupies will kill.

sorry to hear about the vl though

hmmmmm twin turbo V8 ..... I had better buy 2 Lotto tickets each week then LOL

Ohh, no good to hear about your VL, too much thrashing around with out a tune?!
lol,

I was only joking about it being a small motor in there Obviously a V8 would make more power, but do they have different categories to run it in engine size etc? A V6 TT might be a good option, keeping the weight down aswell?
If its an open category/engine size type affair, then maybe a V8. But depends what you're after in the end

Either way, keep us posted

my vote is for the V6. plenty of high HP 8's out there, but personally i would like to see how much you can squeeze out of her.

plus a v6 turbo in EE class will be cheaper than running with the big boys and there v8's.did the vl make it home with the rods still inside

Believe it or not, the VL did make it all the way home.....mind you, it sounded pretty ugly and was probably only a few turns from spitting out all it's innards. I pulled the engine last night, I might have a look inside it later just to satisfy my curiousity.

You're a sadist ari !! LOL



Engine's back out....worst one yet, I have never killed one in a single day before, usually takes a cpl of months :cry:

If I find any gnarly bits, I'll get some pics of them too

Sometimes I hate being right, like yesterday when I thought "F**K i've just run a bigend bearing" !!

I was right, this the #2 bigend shells, now a 1 piece item LOL
