says: "Performance - will produce up to 260 bhp"
The 3.2 does about 207 ish i recall?
I would be more tempted by an LS1 engine in 6.0 form, with a supercharger!
-
lots space between the inner wings for one of them
if i could just convince swmbo that i really really need one [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]

8.5:1 compression? ;D
Ready for some forced induction then...

In this case, It'd be a device a bit like a watering can rose suspended above the engine and connected to the fuel pump. ;D

Had 1 pal & believe me you can get more than 260 bhp outa it.
Had straight through exhaust on my GTA too, it use to make my spine tingle & the hairs on the back of my neck go loopy.
I miss her too :( :( :( :'( :'( :'(
