For a v6, luckily theres a nice aftermarket for the 3.8.. mods you want to do is intake, exhaust, if its an automatic you can go with a shiftkit and torque converter, you can also get a different rear end with 3.73 or 4.10 gears.. and just continue on from there.

Re: mods for v6
Wow Rally, is that how you are going to work hand in hand with our merging f-body cousins?
Honestly he does make a valid point. How many times does the question need to be asked: Will a 350 bolt up where my 305 was, can I put a v8 in place of a v6 yadda yadda............... Now, let's face it, the Camaro did a little better in popularity vs. the 'bird thus we may be a little more offering to a fellow struggling 'maro owner, or trying not to think about your own problem But, what he said is kind of valid, got search?

Re: mods for v6
Eh.. they are a dying breed.. but the thing is.. questions get asked multiple times and you might as well as go ahead and tell em in the thread what they want to hear not just "Go do a search" because if you search for mod for v6 you'll probably get alot of threads popping up or none at all because v6 is a 2 letter thing and the search engine looks for 3 letter or more.

Re: mods for v6
I'm going to have to agree with Rally, it's easier to just ask because searches are so vague a lot of times. I know I've seen the answers before for some of the questions I've asked but could not find them when I tried searching. I'd agree with Rally on mods too, intake, exhaust, gears or stall first. After that go heads/cam or whatever, I've seen some good numbers with a good heads and cam combo on a 3.8.

Re: mods for v6
Now I did not say the "go do a search" is the end all be all answer. Heck, search my posts, I know a few times I would generally answer the question, then suggest a search on the matter for a ton of info.
I am firmly disagreeing with the response of "don't be an asshole" is what I'm saying. |

Re: mods for v6
you should post a sticky with all that you can do to the 3.8L so then you can just tell them to look there for help - it'd be easier. and then specific questions about different parts could be brought up in the forum after reading the sticky.

Re: mods for v6
