What I have seen, been told and read on this forum and other is where I am forming my opinion. Fixed. You're talking about the validity of your statement, based on what people tell you. You'd quantify the number of owners who have blown there motor (i.e. I will quantify the number of turbo Z owners with blown motors by saying ALL that I have talked to have had an engine failure.)

The race team needed an engine to compete in a land speed class at Bonneville requiring a displacement less than 261 ci. Keith decided the best way to achieve this and make a lot of power was to build a 259 ci V6 using a Nascar SB2 V8. The naturally aspirated V6 made 663 horsepower at 9,200 rpm and 393 lb-ft of torque at 7,300 rpm. Listen to Jeff Huneycutt from The Horsepower Monster explain how the unique engine was built below.
