How many old school members still have a V6 f-body`
I'm so Two-thousand and eight and you're so two-thousand and late. Been here for about 5 years, is that "old-school" enough? Yeah, my post count isn't real high because I lurk mostly. I see you're just making a continuation of this thread from the other thread about "Why haven't you swapped yet?" and FWIW, I think most people; not all, but a lot swap merely because 8 cylinders are more desirable. I mean, let's face it. How many muscle car guys look for 6 cylinder 1st, 2nd, or 3rd gens? Not a whole lot. Nothing against a 6, I have one too, I'm just sayin' though. That's my .02.
If they come across a Grand National , I bet alot of the V8 guys would think twice about racing it. Its just what you have into it, if they see a 3.8/3.4 Camaro run low 12's and better times then their LS1 or LT1 , it will make them change their minds about V6 owners.
We just need more owners out racing and modding, I really hope mine is all ready for this winter thats when people really race in AZ due to the heat.

2000 Firebird - much faster than James' (12secondv6) old losermobile. James got so frustrated because he could never catch up to me that he sold his Firebird.
I solemnly swear I am up to no good.

yeah steve you've been needing to get cracking on that flippin thing for months now slacker lol
If I had a new body I would be done. I thought I was going to have help but that fell through. I should of been done last Dec. but its going in the shop for the P/P new heads, intakes , double roller etc. this next week then the turbo will go on, I'm going to go ahead and run as much PSI as I can get away with, .63 A/R is about max 15-18 PSI at 6000 RPMS since I know the heads should hold up well with the heat and the methanol injection should work well, I will run about 7 PSI in the heat and 12 PSI + this winter. I wasn't expecting to pay for the labor for the heads and stuff since I had worked out a deal, but oh well $500-600 in labor isn't bad, I think I'm going to leave the Comp OER's in there(Only 50,000 miles on them) incase I switch to a .82 housing and billet wheel and shift at 6500 rpms. Since I didn't buy a 2nd vehicle I have $6000 to put into it, billet wheel/.82 housing($500), built trans/stall($1600 installed local shop) and rearend($2800 9"). Also spare $400 L26 engine. I guess will see what goes first. Damm I always type alot , I guess being bored everyday gets to me.LOL
