    No, not at all. The Gen V is a more efficient design, which makes it better...but also makes running a smaller pulley more difficult.

    Thanks, that what I had said but no one reads my posts

    And you said the VQ35DE is basically the same as the VQ37...which is clearly no where near right...that is why I posted those dyno numbers.

    what i said was the l32 vs the l67 is like the vq35 vs the vq37. but imho only thing the l32 has over the l67 is a better bottom end and a more efficient blower. youtube vids are misleading they have 04 gtp vs 99 gtp and the 99 gets lost be 2+ cars yeah right. im not taking up for my l67 but im not crazy over the l32 just for the fact it has more power but only on the sticker in the window(real world power is what i like). and yes the vq37 has more power over the vq35 but dont when you stroke the same motor you get more trq? 4.5 vs 4.9 caddies are the same just the 4.9 is stroke longer but the 4.9 ****s on the 4.5 off the line but the 4.5 fills up the cyclinders quicker and walks the 4.9 on the highway. i know apples to oranges, just kinda of asking in a funny way

    I have a 07 SC car...The L67 is the better "block" that is found in the 03-. I have the better SC GenV but it takes MORE supporting mods to drop a pulley.In a Gen3 to drop the basic 3.4 you only need colder plugs,some exhaust work,thermostat. In the Gen5 you need cam and headers on top of the basic stuff. Your block my SC.....now that would be great! IMO!! And could be why you see most people putting the Gen5 on the L67 block. And also just because your a girl doesnt mean you can't launch a car.....You have to practice! But I could be WAYYY wrong and if I am im pretty sure I will be corrected. But I have the better SC but harder to drop pulley sizes...You have the better block with the "crappy" SC but cheaper to drop pulley sizes.

    really the only reason there is a need for more breathing mods on the newer grand prix is because of the blower. it is more efficient, so it runs more boost for less pulley. the bottom end can be broken just as easily. dont let other people try to sway you. if youre not knocking then youll be fine.

    l32 have stronger connecting rods but thats as far as i know. at the track with spare tire and jack out with barley any gas it weighed 3590 (im 160 pounds)

    i figured you would win with a tune but knew it would be close. now let your buddy get a tune

    yeah he says he is going to do a CAI, some exhaust work, and tuned. I guess its time to for me to get a 3.4 pulley with supporting mods.
