Ok so the GM 4.3 liter V6 is the volumetric equivalent the the 5.7 liter 350, and that gave me a random thought the other night. What kind of power do you think could be made from a 320 cubic inch 5.25 liter V6? It'd be the volumetric equivalent of the Zo6's 7 liter 427. I think it'd be a fun thing to experiment with, but I don't know a lot about motors so someone who does chime in on the idea good or bad. I don't know that mpg would be the best, but I'm mainly just wondering about feasibility and performance numbers. I don't know why, just randomly sharing ideas lol. For all I know they could already have something pretty similar and I wouldn't know it.
