Default 96 Concorde engine swap

Hey guys so I've come to realize that the 3.5l V6 is just not up to the task that I'm asking it for unless any of you guys know of any one that sells performance parts for the 3.5l V6 I'd love to know but as far as I know of there isn't any so if I where to engine swap my car what engine would be the easiest to put in? I know your just gonna say stop wasting your time and buy something else but she's my first car and I don't want to get rid of her. what's your guys thoughts?

Unfortunately due to the front wheel drive and the engine configuration there is very little that can be done. Trans set up can not handle additional hp. Other engines just do not fit without structural modification to the K frame.
About the best you could do is build up a 4.0 Stroker out of a 3.5 block. www.300mclub.org is a good resource for you.

When you note 'not up to the task', what task are you referring to? 0-60 in 8 seconds and 0-100 in 22 seconds is no slouch.

As with many stock engines you can pull the heads and port the heads and remove the casting flares to vastly improve airflow. This link can guide you.
