Why ditch the 3.8L SC motor for a V8? I would think the lighter V6 would offer the car better balance for AutoXing than a heavy V8. Those SC motors can be built up with some nice numbers

it was blown up, and the class he wants to run in the 3.8 would not be able to keep up in.

yes they can be built up good and stong but that takes money and he was wanting a 5.0 race car.
