Hey Cheers guys

Its been dropped 2" already but sits high coz its rollin on 17's

The weight is about 900kgs in stock trim and was factory fitted with a 2lt pinto engine, in STD form there realy slow

I am planning to fit a 2850cc stroker kit in the 2.3 with a roller cam , a well ported head , Motec EFI and a T67-25g turbo

But first I need to finish my nitroused 250ci ford cortina

Sounds like you are trying to show us the way to HotRod a 2.3L You know once you get all that done we require: times slips, video, and pic by pic of what was done

That looks like you have a nice project starting. Is that engine a N/A or is it a Turbo block?

Its an N/A block
But I always use an N/A block because I never use any of the STD turbo gear

I will post heaps of pics but that won't be for awhile , I still need to finish my race car

Hey!!!
Just on another note ,what kind of volvo head bolts to the 2.3 block???
As I wouldn't mind having a go at this swap
