Cheers fellas
It's running RS2K ecu and injectors. It's not actually an RS engine. It's a Sierra block and a Scorpio head. The Scorp head actually flows slightly better. All made up, it's virtually an RS engine, same compression and power. I've added a few bits so it's a bit quicker, and I'm using the VIS from the Scorpio too. Gives a little kick when it opens at 3K rpm
It's not quite as quick off the line as I wanted as I have a 3.62 diff in it instead of a 3.92 (which I'm looking to change). I did it purely because it's different. Other 16V conversions use the Scorpio block, which is low comp and not as quick
