Yes, but you're forgetting the weight factor. A V6 will always weigh less
than a V8. In my gen III that might just make a difference if it's a SC'd
4.9 stroker V6..... Why gain all that weight from the 360 if I can put up
similar numbers with a 6cyl? I think the only thing that may deter from the
V6 is that the V8 will always sound better. Nothin sounds like healthy
Mopar muscle. This line of thinking requires some serious studying.....I
haven't even gotten my bonus check and already it's burning a hole in my
wallet. damn.
