This is for all of u why buy a V-6 when u can get it with a V-8 people. Anyway in have a 93 dakota lowered etc. I i hooked up with magnum performance and built a monster. all though i wasnt to happy with his service and turnaround,i will say his work is good. My heads have 2.02,1.94 valves there tottaly ported and smooth on every passage that could be ported and smoothed i have a crower cam,crane 1.6 rockers the manifold was extrudehoned and a new plate was welded to the bottom of the manifold to tottaly seal it,also has a superstreet throttle body from him. jba headers full three inch exhaust with a 2 chamber 3"in3" out flowmaster and a randomtechnology cat. for a power adder im using a vortech supercharger that is made for a 93 V-8 application. running 10psi im also running one of there after cooler kits made for the camaro. and i also have 24lb. injectors. so far my best 1/4 mile ET is 12.86 at 120mph my 60 foot times were 1.90 , im runnin mickey thompson slicks.i also run 3.90 gears. right now the truck is apart gettin ready to get painted,bad news is i hurt my hand pretty bad so i wont be able to get it finished till next year now, so as soon as its painted ill have the pictures posted along with the time slips. if anybody has any questions send me an email ill get back to ya later Joe

I'm right behind ya Joe.
End of summer:
Ported Heads w/larger valves, Custom cam, extrude honed intake.
Currently: Powerdyne @ 10#, Flometrics TB, JBA Headers, Full 2.5" Single/Dual Flowmaster Exhaust w/Car-Sound HighFlow Cat, 1.6:1 Rollers, Mopar Performance Roller Lifters, FMS 24# Injectors, custom timing curve, 4.10:1 gears, etc.
The 32" tires and Fabtech lift are fun but do nothing for performance and she's going down to the ground with a Hotchkis suspension, 17" Enkei 186's with 255/55-17's...and a diet (weight reduction...you've got a big advantage over me on the '93 model). ;)
Hope to be hitting about the same times...not that fast though. :)

Hey Joe - If you'd spent that same amount on a V8 you would be running in the 10s. So, why did you buy a V6? Hahaha

Because he can, and he did, and you cant. He can run with a V6 class too, and he has the little v6 badge there too.

Don't under estimate the V6's...i've seen plenty of them beat out the V8's. With "like" mods, a V8 will make more power...but it's not up to the engine/vehicle to win the race...it's up to the driver. ;)
