That is pretty sweet! Is there a video of this somewhere I can watch?

I wouldn't go that far lol. But yeah...a slight mess up and if the V6 is running good, the V8 driver will have their hands full.

You mean a 1ss 5th gen will have to worry. (Like I said months ago)

I been saying it as well. Stock for stock the 5th gen still is faster in the 1/4 and has the advantage, but it won't take much in my opinion for the V6 to be capable of running lower 13s (13.2 - 13.4). Heck...add 15 - 20 HP to the V6 and it has nearly the exact same HP to weight ratio of the 5th gen L99. The 8 speed helps in the TQ department.
The V6 will never get much aftermarket support, but it has some stuff coming. Cold Air intake, throttle body, ported intake manifold, and tune is all coming, and that alone should be enough to push the "little" 3.6 to an easy 350 - 360 HP.
