Title: 3.0l omega trouble
Post by: paddy_sri on 19 April 2012, 11:37:45
Have a 3.0 mv6 omega here the bottem end went , so put a 3.2 bottom end along with the 3.0 heads , now the car lets a loud back fire out of it when u go to rev it and isn't idling right, timings 100% and have coil all numbered ok, had anyone done this before or does the 3.2 have a different firing order? cheers for help

What does the increase in capacity do? Does it run like a 3.2? Or, Is it between the 3.0 and the 3.2????
