I beleve that Allan mentioned that it will be AT they are interested in. Don't the AT's generally turn better ET's for the non-terriffic driver (no offense to anyone as we are all professional-grade racecar drivers :) )?

Definitely get the V8. Getting a six in that car is like getting Pam Anderson without the boob job.

Speaking of that, I just picked up a 91 Firebird with a TPI 350 auto. Build quality is for shit, but she'll smoke the hides forever. Videos coming soon.

i would say that the ls1 would be a very good choice and if you still are a tad open minded about your tranny choice.... the t-56 is a great tranny and you'll have tons of fun rowing through the gears.... oh yeah and the ram air or fire hawk look a little better than the formula v8 in my opinion.... just my .02

No 5/6 speed wanted. This would be a fun nice weather daily driver for Jana mostly. A new baby for the summer months. We have the normal daily driver in the 1.8L Eclipse which run pertty dam good. For the winter we would stick to the 1.8L and then maybe keep our eye out for another 1G AWD DSM or a sweet deal on a 2G.

So we want an auto for driving ease and no, it probably will not be modded.

Yea thats my question too^. If its much cheaper Id go GM, if not then keep the GSX.

Where did the Mini Idea go? I think that was the best idea for a fun DD and gets good gas too.

Yet another opportunity to post whore! :bounce:

Allan you would look right at home with a mullet, Jana is a different story. A v8 bird would be fun to mod at the shop, you couldn't really get one and expect me to sit back and leave it alone could you? At least with the 1.8, you don't have to worry about that.

The GSX is just getting old, but she still oves it and if she keeps it it will still be her baby. Slow retarded baby, but her baby none the less. If it was my call we would trade the GSX and the Truck in on a new Titan!

Or I would love to get an early 70s mercury cougar.

If you have to settle for a v6, you could always pick up a supercharger from a series 2 3800 (gtp), and smaller pulley. IMO, get a v8, you will be happier in the long run... Check out the gtp forums, you could find one for a pretty decent deal.
