This is a no contest..... I wouldnt have the first hesitation in running a v6 'maro, and stock s197's should outrun me.....
The easiest/quickest way for me to tell a v6 from an SS is the little slit in the nose of the hood. SS's have'm, 6ers don't

This means most of the "SS" Camaros in my town are 6ers with the badges changed... Hmm...

Personally I think when buying a muscle car, gas mileage is probably the LAST thing you should think of...

they also color code the badges to the exact trim of the car
a silver SS badge is just a standard V8 model... a red SS badge is a V8 model with an RS package
all RS badges are red and they signify the LT trim which is basically just a base V6 with the RS package
and the black sheep running around with no badges are the base LS package with the standard V6 but no bells and whistles
cross referenceing these features with the color of the SS badges would be a start

The RS package adds the HID headlamps, body-color-painted water track (the strips on the sides of the roof, they are black without the RS package), darker red tail lights, and makes the "SS" badge red instead of silver. It also adds the RS spoiler on the LT models, but it's already included on the SS models regardless.
