Default FRST motor

actually managed to buy an incomplete xr3 project down here fitted with a FRST motor!!!!!

only one i know of currently in SA , so it should be interesting.
tappet cover looks gunged up(replaced with another on the car) so i can only assume the motor is knackered?

havent actually lifted the tappet cover on it yet so i dont know for sure as i am still busy with my gotech drag car

a few questions:

injector size?
piston type?
max boost possible with the standard pistons?
is the fuel press reg same on it as the one currently fitted to my EFI CVH drag car?(i will be fitting a rising rate fuel press reg this weekend)

all help greatly appreciated

had some issues with my gotech , but the guys at gotech(about 15 minutes from my house!!!) are really helpful , dyno results to follow....
