Hi .... just my input, but I got 2 of v8vairs, and I would love to have
instead a 3.8 or 4.3 v6... probably with a turbo tho ...
I think it would be a real sweet little package, with even a single turbo
you should be able to get 350 ft lbs without trying hard, and more much more
if you try ... while lighter and more seat room ....    my v8's weigh 3000
lbs empty and I am 6 ft 2 ....
**********
I gotta admit... the loud pedal works real good with the v8's tho ...

regards, ken campbell
