Hi DML'ers,
I got this question from this person who is having performance
problems with his Dak. As he has a V6 and 4wd and wants to run with the
2wd V8s, he needs some reality, but he could use some help from the V6
Gurus here. Please send information to him please.
Cheers,
Bill Countie

hello Bill
I have a 1993 Dodge Dakota With the V6 engine and manual
transmision 4WD. Compearing to the 2WD Dakota mine runs much more poor. (It
has 31 tires) I guess the main reason is tire diameter but i'm not sure. I
would like to improve 0-60 MPH on my truck. I'd like to know how can i do
so. I don't know very much about this but i guess that increasing HP is the
only way. I''ve been finding out if i can suap a V8 engine but i realise
it's very compicated. Probably installing mopar performance parts on my V6
would be a solution. I'd like to do 0-60 MPH times close to 2WD Dakotas
with the V8 engine.Do you know what is that time?. Do 0-60 MPH times are
directly related to HP?. The V8 Dakotas have 230 HP Considering that they
have the same transmision as mine. If i increase HP to 230 HPin my V6 will
it be the same to have a V8 engine?.
Sorry for such amount of questions but i'd like my truk to perform better
and i no nothing about tech.
Thanks a lot
Gregorio Tagle
