....they just announced their first V8. Yamaha stretched the old SHO 60 degree V8 up to 4.2L for Volvo to power their sport ute. 310HP/325 lb-ft of torque.

Now that will be an interesting engine. The old SHO engine was really advanced and made great power. I never got to drive one, but my brother drove a couple of them and he said it was just like a regular Taurus until you got the revs up to about 3500 and the it was a totally different animal.

Back to the focus of this thread. Has our 300/I6 quesion starter decided to hop up an I6? Or at least have we answered your questions?
