My ute with Pacies, exhaust, memcal and LSD would be on par with a VE 3.6. Once my CAI finally arrives I should get extra gains of around another 35-40RWHP. Then it will be a no brainer, VR would win hands down.

I im a little arg

The vr is a 3.8L but the ve sv6 3.6 has dohc so im seeing if anyone actually raced them.

@delcowizzid races an old Buick V6, which puts out huge HP. Can't remember the figures but yeah it would cane a 3.6 DOHC no problems.

A 3.0 Allotec is 2994cc, or 182.7ci.
Therefore a VE Omega would be fastest because it is halfway between the mighty 179ci and the even mightier 186ci. :cool:

Some of us here are old enough to remember that the Buick V6 3.8 being used in the Formula Holden open wheelers. :(

Those formula Holden motors were cool.

The original VE omega with the old 4l60e was a slug.

Oh yeah, that extra displacement makes the VR a sure fire winner.
