new 6 cyl GM motors

Now I am really not sure how many people will be interested in this, but, GM is apparently planning to start production of a new 6 cylinder. to be built here in canada,I believe in ontario, but i could be wrong. This could be something to consider. If you look at how high fuel prices have been lately, 6 cylinder performance could be the next step in third gen evolution, maybe not but might be worth looking into for you six banger fans out there

take care all

I read something in Super Chevy Magizine about a 4.2 I6 that produces somewhere around 275 hp that they are gonna put in the Blazer, Envoy, and Bravada in a few years.

Interesting, but a straight? Whata painto fit in ours. If it's not 60* V, it'd be easier to put an 8 in.
