don't lie, you are too lazy to use google and do your own research so you want someone on here to spoon feed you the answer.

fordfairmont is getting confused with VX Calais Vs.
they actually do 12.9s, gem3 is an excellent motor, iron block and heads with forged pistons and a stroker camshaft stock.
