What Engine Is In Your Hood !

[speedtripledan]

not a hood but still a kit, zetec on 45dcoe's 142bhp wheels, had pinto in my hood, v8 in the westy and r1 bike in the atomic.

 

v8 for sound, r1 for revs, zetec best of both worlds

1. Standard Pjnto with bike carbs, 4 branch and Megajolt probably 110bhp

currently in tha car as I rebuild the others

2. Pinto 2.1 injection head FR32 thin gasket 9.7 to 1 rest as above 130bhp @ wheels

3. Pinto 2.1 cossy rods big inlets 10.7 to 1 crank scrapper, RL31, rest as above probably 170+

 

Gearbox is a V6 type 9 diff is 3.9

It should be this

 

But due to technical problems, and the engine melting another piston I currently have this

[Guest mcramsay]

Not a hood but... 1999 bmw 3.2 m3 engine, remapped and is good for 340bhp

 

[Guest red-col]

2.0,ltr crate zetec on gbs plenum chamber, type 9 box, emerald ecu 136 bhp, was told that the emerald is the reason bhp down,

And grand-dad's car ( & Nanny's) is powered by a 1.8 CVH married to a type 9 box ; just as it came out of the Sierra; with the exception of XR3i injection & brains . SLOW but it still ROLLS under its own power 42,000miles in the Sierra & 26,000 so far in Florin -- only bother so far ( touch wood) injection pump failure -- 2 metres from its garage.

 

Power as measured at CKC Rolling Road day 102 BHP

Was 2 litre pinto on dgav...then bike carbs.

now 2.1 gas flowed head kent cam bike carbs and as soon as its running ill know more lol

[Guest old_timbo]

Fuel Injected Supercharged Pinto. Not a cheap option, but something different and I didn't have to lose a good engine to find more power. 10psi boost = bonkers amount of torque and no need to rev the engine to get performance. Dyno session now required to improve fuel consumption (currently less than 20mpg) and get the most out of it!

[Bob Tucker]

Redtop, forged rods & pistons, 288 solid lifter cam, bigger inlet valves, opened ports, twin 45DHLAs, 38mm chokes

the usual total loss oil system, 204 bhp before wheels started to slip.
