I don t think I would consider pentastar v6. 1. I am on a budget 2. Abudance of LS variants 3. They make evertything you can think of for this platform. Our resale value is shot anyway and being married now and planning a family I dont think I could convienvce my wife for me to buy another project car. So I am going to work with this cool little car we all love give it the power it looks like it has and keep it forever
