Let's not forget how much easier it is to swap one cam vs 4, or how much cheaper that is too.

Seriously, the LS3 is the easy one to modify, it's a no brainer. Even the L99, once you tune out AFM.

Second 87 will always be atleast 20 cent cheaper then 91/93.

Finally for A6 guys is 10K worth 88hp more lol I don't think so. for 2K I can get to 360 and that onlyu puts the v8 at 40hp more Wow what a concept

That's some serious trolling here. You can't seriously not know the answer to this...

What? Trolling? You can't be serious? You think it takes more to modify the LS3 over the LLT? Really?

No, the truth is, the LS series is the easy one. Plain and simple. Now, I'll give you there is more market there right now, absolutely. But the v6 crowd is wanting more options. We are buying and pushing companies into expanding the v6 side of things.

So, just how do you get I'm trolling?

greenrail · 08-19-2010, 04:19 PM

So let me get this straight...... If you make a personal decision about which vehicle fits your needs and means, you are a lesser person?

Regardless of cost (or-------insert difference here--------)?

Badges!!!!

I don't need no stinking badges!

Funny thing happened while I was outside wiping my lowly V6 down in the drive... A kid, probably 10 comes walking down the strret and says "Wow awesome Camaro"...

Mailman comes by as well a few minutes later and says "I love that car"...

Neither of them cared that I am a poor, broke, lowly V6 owner....

I suppose that this one time could be different than any other instance in the history of the automobile, but I doubt it.

Dude how the V6 go from 29mpg to 26mpg are you making things up?

greenrail · 08-19-2010, 04:23 PM

Surely you can't be serious!

Yes I am, and don't call me Shirley!

I know Gang, I have lost it here.

But, then again, I am so easily amused.

When I see this stuff break out I have to just plain laugh!

Lets also note that is under rated most veers running 93 octane are seining well into 32mpg highway. And yes higher octane does add trq to the v6....

greenrail · 08-19-2010, 04:30 PM

How can that be...... The 2011 Mustang V-6 is rated at 30 mpg highway, therefore it is automatically a superior automobile.

ROFLMAO

Throw another log on the fire.......

Auntie Emmmmm , It's a Twister!
