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!

8.5:1 compression?  ;D

Ready for some forced induction then...

I don't think it's worth hauling that much iron around for 260 BHP.

LS1=5.7 litre all alloy V8 (earlier Monaro)
LS2=6.0 lire all alloy V8 (later Monaros)

Now an LS7, thats a real V8 engine!

Or even the eagerly awaited LS9
