    I have the 2.3 turbo from a t-bird, intake has been cut, rotated,gutted and knife edged, Haun super 16 G turbo(good for 30#) roller cam, brown top injectors, large MAF with an LA3 ECM. It has a front mounted inter-cooler and walbro 225 fuel pump. It's going in a 62 Renault Dauphine for F/BGALT car at Maxton. Record is 151 and change and I hope to get baby girl in the record book.

    That sounds like a wild setup! Can you post a few pics of your engine? After reading about these engines the past week, we're sold on doing the 2.3 setup. It's amazing you can get that kind of power out of such a small displacement. This should be a fun car to put together; I'm going to tell my son in law to join CHR and start a build thread on this thing.

    These little motors have always interested me. I did a little surfing and came across this information. Scroll down for everything you ever wanted to know....

    Remember, Freedom isn't Free, thousands have paid the price so you can enjoy what you have today.
