What did you ask? these look like to completely different types of reponces. I asked for pictures of teh engine and how he/she got 380-420 HP....Originally posted by Ttop34:
Here's the responce I got:
Dear Ttop34,
The pace car engine on this car was actually removed from the first V6 corvette test pace car. As you might know, the pace cars in nascar and pepsi 500 all have V8 engines, but this one was used to test it's power on a corvette. The reason it puts out so much more power is because normal firebirds and camaros come with either 3.4L V6 or 5.2L V8, this engine is a 4.3L V6 which is almost the size of a V8, but because it's a V6, it's cylinders are bigger and along with the platinum performance spark plugs, it puts out a lot more power than normal engines do.
Let me know if you had any other questions and thanks for looking at my auction.
Jesyka

Actually GM has a crate motor 4.3, think it's called the ZZ43 that with headers and 3" exhaust makes 300hp.1997 Nassau Blue Vette<br />1989 Jeep Cherokee 4x4 (lifted with 31\" tires)<br />2000 V6 Camaro, loud, cammed 210rwhp *SOLD*Comment

someone in gainsville, FL should make arrangements to look at the car. One of our members probably lives down there.1996 3.8 Firebird with some modsComment

I think it's safe to say that this car will be relisted.
As for the responce I got, I just asked about details of the engine.
For the person that suggested a 4.3 is a 305 minus two cylinders, here's a little math for ya.
6cylinders/8cylinders = 0.75
5.0L(305ci) x 0.75 = 3.75L
5.7L(350ci) x 0.75 = 4.275L

a 4.3 is commonly known among s-10 owners ( which is where it's most commonly found, along with some older monte carlos etc... ) as a 3/4 350.
it's the exact same engine, minus two cylinders.
the 3.8 and 4.3 are both from the 90 degree v6 family so why does everyone here have such a hard time believing the car is real?
you guys make it sound as if the 4.3 engines are hard to come by. While it is true that the vast majority of 4.3 engines are not putting out the kind of numbers she claims, the 4.3 is a very popular circle track motor, and is capable of putting out plenty of power.Jason<br /><br />\'99 Pewter Camaro<br />\'93 V8 S-10Comment
