    300 HP on a N/A 2.3?

    Cut .110+off your head/port and polish it/gut a carbed intake/better solid lifter cam/upgrade your distributor/slap a full race header on it and you are well on your way.--Or, check into a used ministock motor for around $5000 and modify the rest of the stuff their rule book wouldn't let them...

    Gears

    Throw on a set of 205/50/15's and you will closely duplicate 4.10(or slightly deeper) gears with the added benefit of less rotating mass.

    I got an idea!

    you can turbo an na with a few parts changed out., However, a 2.3 turbo car can easily be found for @$300-$700 us. Take the parts you need, sell the rest. 87-88 turbo coupes yield a bountiful harvest of parts(like the 8.8 disc brake rear axle).

    air shocks, what are they used for?

    Get a set of moog cargo coils-a good compromise between load and handling. Problem with air shocks to increase payload capacity is if they blow out or loose a line while under load, there you sit with your fenders on the tires.

    "How To's" on 91-93LX's...

    91+'s- have no knock sensor or adjustable timing. exhaust is most restrictive. drop your exhaust pipe, pull your factory manifold and open the end dump up at least 1/4". While putting the manifold back on, take the egr tube off at the ex. manifold, put a good old U.S. quarter in the fitting and...

    Remember When?

    Thanks, Boss, I forgot about the seat gripping experience of the single master cyl. -- How about when the needle on the radio was way off and you cranked it against the end repeatedly till it was closer or fell off. :rlaugh: Or how about the fm converter so you didn't have to listen to your...

    2.3 turbochargers?

    Keep in mind that if you insure your 2.3 as a naturally aspirated motor and become involved in a incident where there is a major liability incurred, If they figure out you have a 200hp turbo motor and not the 105 hp motor they insured you on, It is very likely they will not pay out and you will...

    Remember When?

    Today at work, we started talking about the cars we wish we had never sold. In general the talk was all positive. Then I started to think back on how it really was.--u-joints that went out every 15,000 miles / alternators going south every 30,000 miles / radios that were a pain to tune once the...

    This is the car to have...

    There was a convertible gt350 anniversary edition in our area with just under 50k miles on it, it looked brand new inside and out. Asking price was around 9grand if my memory serves me correctly and it only sat about 3 weeks before it was gone. This car may have a huge reserve on it and may have...

    Got Boosted For New Year's

    I broke down and got an engine stand late last week, not positive, but it's looking like I'll be running the tc (at least long enough to make sure everything works). Svo1-I finally dropped the tank, but haven't found the leak yet. As soon as I figure out if I need that tank, I'll let ya know. It...
