Hi gurus !

What is the best engine option, a 3.8 Supercharged or 5.7 powered late model Holden ? Looking at power economy and best all round donk. I know the normal 3.8 is fine, but its the supercharged i cant quite work out. Seems there are heaps on the market right now...must be thirsty eH ?

Cheers John

Hi John,

The SC3.8 is a bit of a conumdrum to me...some say they go like stink and are economical to boot and some say they don't go that well and chew juice...maybe there are good and bad ones. A mate of mine has a SC3.8 Stato and it goes well but is

I had a 3.8S in a VX commodore and it really seemed to chew the juice. Power was good, but around town was getting very poor returns - not as bad as the Grand Cherokee that I had though ;-). 18L/100 was good.
