Ive seen him do it, maybe the guy was a TERRIBLE driver but that car is SOOO fast!
Just out of curiosity what do you think he has? I know you can do bolt-ons, heads, intake,and camson 5.0's and push them over 350rwhp easily. I doubt that's possible with the old 6's (165rwhp~ Tops).And try not to throw theterm walking around a lot. Walking is what a terminator(390rwhp) does tostock GT's not afully modded n/a new edge 6's(get the picture?).Here's some tipsto guess what he's got:
-A cam you could here from his exhaust
-Headers/or open pipes makes the exhaust very loud
-Even if he popped the hood, all you could see is a stroker kit, nitrous line, and or cai. You won't be able to see his port and polish parts he has so that confuses me a little. And the fact he's about stock for stock 100rwhp short(that's a **** load of modding).
How bad did he take an s197 GT? It could have been a GT badged V6, I have heard a bunch of people throwing GT badges on their 6. I really wanna figure out what he's got [:@]
how would u see a stroker kit from popping the hood?


and a 4.3 built correctly for n/a applicatoins will probably make 250-300rwhp (300rwhp being extreme compression) which is enough to beat a s197 gt since its going to be lighter and have a bit more power possibly.

no a stroker kit consists of a stroker crankshaft, and rods to match, and usually pistons since u are doing the motor anyway.

and aftermarket intake manifold is simpley that, an aftermarket intake manifold. u can have one with or without a stroker engine

Just curious but about how much is that going to cost for everything? Not including the installs.

hey sam, i'm assuming you read this? http://www.supersixmotorsports.com/p...Cdynotest1.pdf

Stage 2+ heads - only +25RWHP and +19RWTQ...however....non-peak gains of 50RWHP and 80RWTQ...all without tuning changes!!! Look at how much higher that low-end torque curve is! Pretty impressive. Imagine getting that all tuned...you'd see some nice numbers.
