Vs V6 wagon
Hi all. this may sound like a dumb question but im wondering the main difference
between a v6 and v8 k frame?
I own a vp v6 and just got a vp v8 calais roller shell, so thoughts were rebuild the
v8 k frame with all new bushes and what ever else is needed. While still driving my v6.
and then change over to a complete rebuilt k frame.
Peoples thoughts would be great

vp calais ls1, vp berlina 3.8L
the answer is no. v6 and v8 k frames are totally different. unless your planning to ditch the v6 engine for a v8 then yes...

What hi_ryder also failed to mention is, aside from the mounts, that the biggest difference between those two frames pictured above would be that the top one is mercilessly FILTHY.
