With a 2.3 bottom end a guy on the sierra forum made more torque and power than a 2.9 v6. With a full on 16v head and 2.3 bottom end people consistently make more power than the cossy v6, AND its dirt cheap.
They turbo really well too.
Sensible choice in my opinion.
Rob,
Fair played. I didnt realise he was doing much engine work on it you see. Everyone to there own and all that, i like pinto's for a reason i do not know i just think there fun to drive and although drinking far more fuel than a twincam and v6 together i think its more about smiles per gallon not miles
