I wrote multiple comments on the streetfire comments page about it no being a V8. A lot of people see that it is an L67 and are telling him to change it.

I need one of those L67's over here on the Autobahn!!! I am already planning on it. Congrats! The guy on his forum is being real cool about it. Sure seems like a nice guy. Good to see people can appreciate other cars and drivers.

Not so sure, considering a friend of mine has one putting between 340-380 to the wheels on stock tranny and transfer case(which is nearly indestructable)
Nice vid, sweet fiero, and surprisingly mature reaction/respect from the dsm's so good news all around.

Thats not the point. A supercharged 350 is going to be making enough tq to destroy that almighty getrag.

The DSM trannies have to be pieced together from different years to make a good one. I did a 6 bolt engine and 2g head with a 14b in a 2g TSi and my tranny was messing up with about low to mid 200 whp. I would take the Getrag over the DSM trans anyday. That transmission was fustrating to no end. I did enjoy the car though.
