pontiacfreak142 Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Discuss. As it sits, i dont see it being "under rated" but im sure its been detuned to keep the power ratings far enough away from its big brothers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbospec29 Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Who cares? Near 300hp from a 4 liter v6 is pretty common these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble Maker Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 As it sits, i dont see it being "under rated"... Aren't there a ton of smaller V6 engines already on the market making more power? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pontiacfreak142 Posted May 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Aren't there a ton of smaller V6 engines already on the market making more power? Yes, but none that will have a torque band like this thing will. Its based directly off the new gen v ltx engine platform, so it will also have a ton of mod potential.

Tripleskate Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Who cares? It's a V6 trying to play a V8's game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Bastard Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Gas mileage of the previous 4.3 was about the same as the v8, I wonder if this one will be the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackbar00 Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 So they increased the displacement and decreased the horsepower. Yep, sounds like GM to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaSSon Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Chalk me up as unimpressed. My little 3.0l makes better numbers with a beautiful torque "curve". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
