2.0 pinto performance tuning
hey guys i am rebuilding my 2.0 pinto and i am now after some more power i am keeping most things standard apart from the head really i have a 4 branch exhaust manifold a fr32 cam kit with a vernier cam pulley and also new gaskets and seals through out, and was also thinking in the near future getting some 40mm bike carbs instead of the standard 32/36 weber, how much power do us think i could get out of this engine with this set up, i would like 130bhp what else would i need to to get this power i dont really want to bore out the block as i dont have the 205 block but if any of yous have any experiance and would like to give me some pointers that would be great thanks

These sadly are a real gutless engine unless you spend thousands, I spent the best part of a thousand and was really disappointed with the results, I had a fast road cam fitted with twin 45 dellortos on a 202 higher compression block and a Newly built 1.6 head and there was very little difference in this compared to a 1.6 standard pinto on a vv carb, certainly won't bother putting money into one of these engines again
