The lateral acceleration is false, it should be 0.97 g.

It’s worth noting that Car and Driver (a source I trust more) got 0-60 in 3.8 seconds, 0-100 in 8.3, 0-120 in 12.4, the 1/4 mile in 12.0 @ 118 mph, 0.91 G road holding, and top speed of 218.

GM 6.0 LITER B7 was mainly used for industrial and marine applications.

It was an aftermarket block - sleeved copy of the 350, that's how it was 6.0L.

Correction, GM didn't build a 6.0 liter V8 for their trucks until 2000?

DeLorean DMC-12 = good time machine
Vector W8 Twin Turbo = BETTER !


User avatar

Shaggy  12y ago

I'd like to know where they got that engine, 6.0 liters, if I'm correct, nobody was building a 6.0 liter V8 in 1989, except maybe GM for their trucks, but if it were a truck engine, it would have more torque.

American sports car of superlatives built in 1993 with a 600 hp 6 liter V8-engine, a body mainly made of kevlar, and a cockpit like a jet fighter.

@ Fangio Man: Maybe Biturbo is Siamese twin turbos. :D

The reason for the slow 0-60 is probably because it only has 3 gears
