well its a little to small for a derby car i'd think.... i'd compare it to the six of a four door honda...
i was thinking about droping a V8 into i could get a 302 with a decent sized cam and alum heads with a c6 sitting at my buddys which i could pick up for about 500


or i could scrap it and get 250+ for it too...idk lol so many ideas...

I wouldn't put a C6 behind a 302. They eat HP and probably won't fit in the tunnel of the Fairmont anyway. A nicely built C4 is they way to go.
