I was wondering if anyone knows if Hughes is still selling the intakes and stuff for the 3.9? I have a '98 3.9

And your reply post doesn't contribute to the decay you speak of??? (Presuming someone wasn't spoofing your unsecured handle.)

Shoe was a little rough but, a lot of people come here for info without even making an attempt at finding an answer on their own.

obviously the first thing to do in your case would have been to contact Hughes or visit their website.

rant over.

And here, I alway's thought this was for shareing info. I've been shareing for a long while and because of smartasses who don't like to help and only take, most of the origonal posters left. Includeing the best one on here who actually knew what he was talking about: burnd. If none of you have never used Hughes then thay's fine. Keep ur mouths shut then and stop screwing with everyone else. A lot of people leave for these exact reasons.

i think if you'd been here so long you'd know how to contact Hughes. even if you hadn't been here so long, address bar search for hughes engines would have taken about 10 seconds.

i don't believe you have been sharing info for so long. the original Intense Dak hasn't frequented this sight for quite a while. and if you knew who bunrd was you could at least spell his handle correctly.

and by the way, i think this is what you're looking for:

Now, would that have killed you to do in first goddamn place? This used to be a fun hobby AND I know for a fact that Burnd left along with Howdy for this exact reason.

What's with the anal retentive board cop?

Shoe, what's it to you if someone doesn't do their own research? This is a free world and you have the option of ignoring such questions and moving onto the next thread.

Please leave out the spiel about "freedom of speech."

99% of all questions can be answered by doing research. Many people come here for small talk not an advanced education in Dakology. Without simple questions and small talk this would be a very boring site.

It's a wonder anyone want's to ask ANYTHING here anymore. What with the hollier-than-thou posting. Ya know, why, if you have a V8, would ya care about a V6 posting so much? No wonder so many other forums were started.

If you do not like what I said then get over it. You waited over a day for your answer when it would have not taken you 1 minute to search and find it. I will throw the freedom of speech at you because that is why it is here. It does not say "Freedom of speech (well unless it hurts somebodies feelings).

Also, I may have been just a tad bit harsh. I did not say one curse word though. You do not have to take things so serious. I was giving you a hard time, but you reply back as if you have a corn cob stuck up your ass. Get over it man. If you cannot take a little joke or critism then get off the damn internet because that is what it is full of. I do not act like this on other websites because it is moderated 100 times better and is actually nice to go on. The off-topic board is just rediculous and they fan out into the other forums. The reason I still post in here is because I used to own a V6 and it is to help out people. Like I said though people cannot take a little joke. So what ever.

Shoe,

I have been on this board along time, I try to be helpful without being critical or harsh on those who have questions. I know that Larry's advice has been a God send to many who visit this site. In fact the v6 column of the board is more interesting than the v8 or performance section due to question and answers given. Many young "kids" will come to ask questions who don't have much auto experience. My question to you is do you want to encourage them by answering their questions or be discouraging by being critical. I would that the later is true. This is not the place to vent if you have had a bad day at work. Please reconsider your future responses to others posting on this board.

How in the name of the Dakota God did you manage to get 350 horses out of the V6 from hughes engines? Larry is right at 300 and he's got a stroker and I did not see a stroker kit available nor supercharger/turbo set up. With out one of those three I call BS on 300 ponies from our almighty 3.9

They did make a stroker kit. It was not cheap and took forever to get. I believe that Larry had a friend make one for him. You can get superchargers, it is called the ones for the 318s and 360s. Turbos will be one-offed.

Sam said all from hughes...I went there and didn't see any. I know you can use any supercharger for the V8's on our V6's...I had the sight that actually had a stroker kit available for the 3.9 but that was a couple years ago and I can not find any now. I guess you could call a place and special order it but as you said...extremely expensive and will take for ever to get.

Yeah, I think that it was stroker-kits.com or something like that. Custom billet crankshaft are not cheap at all.
