You might be a 60v6 enthusiast if...

proposed motor:

18psi is reasonable.... right?

twin hairdryers on a 3900 making ~525HP.... and an unknown amount of torque... guess that cage would be put to use!

looking good though.

Yeah, bitches...

I hear its going to have a 2.8 iron head with 4 turbos on one box. Also something about a grill for a hood scoop. These are just rumors.

I just finalized the deal today, and don't even have the car in my possession yet. But I will post up some pics hopefully before I go to bed tonight. Its a long term project, so don't expect any real progress in the next year or 2...

If you buy a Mustang roller to eventually install a 60V6, you just might be a 60V6 enthusiast...

i have failed to find this build thread and i am VERY interested...

also, if you have gen2 plenums screwed to your garage wall

i just noticed that the 2.8 plenum has it's writing engraved into it compared to the 3.1 having the area around it milled out(cast out? IDK how GM made them)....

but

if you chuckle, on the toilet, while reading How to Re-Build Your GM V-6 60*, you might be a 660 enthusiast...

you might be a 60v6 junkie if you took this pic...

my car running more lean couldnt hurt. its burnin WAY too rich right now.

[robertisaar]

hmm... my plan was to find some PVC piping to match up with the tube running in to the air cleaner box and using a cone style filter... not much else though. well moving the sensor too. i was kinda thinking of using a bigger tube too. i hear PVC piping works. but ive been looking for something that doesnt look like its going to swallow a load of crap from a freshly flushed toilette.

make sure you put the sensor IN the airstream... not the way GM did it. it doesn't get a good reading when its NEXT TO the airstream... its VERY susceptible to heat soak that way. then the car starts running lean since it thinks the air isn't as dense as it really is.

The TRANSAXLE in your car is worth more than the car!

The HEADERS on your car are worth more than the car!

You've bought an entire other car off craigslist just for the engine and trans, that still costs about the same as the car you plan to put it in.
