An Idea

pfffffffff lazy ass, use your e-brake newb

to the original idea tho.................LNF=#1 solution, the power of a V8 that would EASILY swap into your G5, soon as fueling is solved AND IT WILL BE, the LNF will be well into the 500whp 500wtq range with the right turbo upgrade ect.

Solution #2, absolutely if your doing some type of V6 custom amazing swap into your G5, get your hands on any of the new Direct Injected V6's GM has recently developed. The 3.0L V6 DI is a good engine tho zero manual tranny's are offered with it. I'd say your best bet for a GOOD V6 would be the 3.6L V6 DI they use in some of the Caddy's, available manual tranny and since it's being used in a Caddy you should be able to find some aftermarket support to help you upgrade it.

you can get the srx turbo kit right from a parts counter...just sayin

x2 the above but x5 the post above that and the #1 solution to your "problem" GET AN LNF SWAP DONE SIR!!!!

i don't think gm has any manual trannies for the new direct injected v6's. i have never seen one come into the dealership.

I swear the 3.6L DI has a manual tranny available!!!!

 

[ff_drift_lol]

in rwd, but ive never seen one transverse mounted
i wanna mount like a vette subframe in or something that would be sick. i think it could be done. **** there was one sitting around at work today i should have measured it and shit while no one was around.

not my problem lol that's the OP's problem, i just made sure i had suggested a GOOD ENGINE with available manual tranny and i did

 

[ls1fbody]

Why not try a solstice rear cradle/subframe

 

[ff_drift_lol]

that too. idk though the upper control arms need a place to go. i guess the body would work. there's like no frame rails though

the g6 is a delta body. drop your g5 cradle, raise your g6 cradle. bolt it in and wham-o. only thing is getting a manal tranny bolted up. you guys know they make the cadillac srx with a 2.8 turbo v6 now?

took this pic at work. yes, it is trans mounted for fwd. and yes, it's bolted to an awd drivetrain. have fun.

Ok....so what body is the srx on? cause...you could totally try and swap the entire drivetrain... DOIT!

Trifecta has already unlocked the tables and tuned them on some LNFs

 

[ff_drift_lol]

it's not a delta body. it's the same as the gmc acadia, buick enclave and that chevy crossover. pretty cool little whip though, kinda ugly but it's a v6 turbo!

Unless im wrong.....

i see zero 500whp and 500wtq dyno graphs for any ss/tc's

If you're going to do the work, switch to RWD, it'll just be more satisfying to drive.

I havnt seen that power level either, but I do believe the fuel system will support it as is. Would have to talk to Trifecta to see what the duty cycle is on their highest tuned one and what power level thats at.

let us know

If a Northstar V8 can be put in a cavi then yes a V6 can be put in your car.Just would take some fab to get everything to work properly.

its just not really worth it... lol we have economy cars...

x2 just drop an LNF in there

The answer would be more accurate if he would share the tables and let someone that is a tuning artist tune the car. IMO Vince is an excellent software engineer, but the AFR's he uses on the LNF are bad juju.
