Just asking. If Polaris was to update, change the Ecotek Chevrolet VVT engine) for something new, what would you propose? If you like the 2.4 VVT they have now, chime in also. The sky is the limit. Just for fun.
Let's just say...
-
I have top-secret footage of the new Polaris 2.2 million cc Slingshot engine. You're going to need some shocks...
-
How about the new
5000-hp, Quad-Turbo, 12.3-Liter V16 -
This will give you more storage up front.
Is that a Honda?
-
My choice:
Koenigsegg's 90-degree, twin-turbocharged V8 engine that produces 1160hp ...
It matches the color of my Sling.
-
I think the Ford 3.5 twin turbo Ecoboost would be fun and somewhat realistic.

Funny you should mention that. I was just speaking with a gentleman at the car show in Nashville Saturday about that very motor. My shop teacher in the mid 70's had a Triumph Stag with that engine in it. According to the guy I spoke with Saturday yhat engine was a 3.5 liter all aluminum V-8 originally made by Buick. One of those properly built with twin turbos should do a nice job in a SS.

I want whatever engine that comes with a computer with OBD2!

How about the Buick Grand National GNX engine V-6 Turbocharged!

what would keep us from using the ECM, sensors and wiring harness from a Pontiac Solstice?

Off the top of my head, the first three issues would be with the abs. traction control and stability control since the Solstice ecu would be looking for input from a 4th wheel speed sensor

A little more info on the the little Buick 215 Alum. engine from 1961. Rover did use the casting up until a few years ago. It was also used in the Indy 500 by Mickey Thompson in 1962.

How about the 3.6 v6 that GM uses in the Camaro? Over 300 horses to start, lots of hop up parts for it and easy to get. GM 3.6 Liter V6 LFX Engine Info, Power, Specs, Wiki | GM Authority

It does not sound like a V-8

True that, but its close to the same weight as the 4 we have and lots more power to start with.
