Thanks Gilly, We had Metric Motors in L.A. do the 380 engine. Did a REAL nice job. I just have a hard time with the aluminum bore. Now give me a Cummins 5.9 (In Dodge Trucks) or a 617 turbo engine, I see durability. What do you think of the long term mileage of these engines? What did they do to better the chain guide problem that the 380 had? (My friends 380 broke a chain guide at 140K and it was a double chain engine).
Do you know the approx. HP of the 3.2ltr V6?
I don't like sun,moon or whatever they want to call it roofs! They are a constant source,(IN MY BOOK)of problems and leaks.
Thanks for your input, Chris
