If someone is going to start looking for a 6 to build what do you want and what do you want to avoid?
2.2 2.4 2.7 3.0 3.2 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) |

Build a 2.7 right and it should be fine. Thermal Reactors took down a lot of them and gave them a bad rap.
All have to be rebuilt. All will cost money. 2.7 will give you some nicer torque than the smaller motors and still rev as Brant points out. That said, a 930 block (SC motors) is kinda bulletproof, There have been stud issues there but, 3.0's done right are set-it and forget-it. |
