Explain to me how a 2.3l 4 cylinder can be this fast?
>>16354323
Tarbo
>>16354323
big snail, methanol, nitrous
By doing so.
Fuck off. Speed is NOTHING but cubic dollars.
>>16354323
and people told me to do a 5.0 swap and not even fuck with the 2.3.
don't forget that these motors are tough, which allows a shit ton of building.
>>16354374
and the car is really only pushing 500hp

Its just a reminder that the Lima is not an engine that should be scoffed at
there are 8 second <2.0L fwd Hondas
people are just lazy and want muh big ass engine that requires no talent to go fast

question
would fwl benefit in drag racing?
>>16354481
no its a drawback since all the weight shifts away from the drive wheels causing traction issues
>>16354323
because the Pinto (the family of which the Lima is from just in another displacement) is a very, very good engine. It can be made to rev high and make fucktons of power even in N/A or be kept stock and reliable like bricks.
>>16354323
Because you can replace displacement with science
>>16354323
So what do you need to prep an engine like that for MONDO BOOST other than an 80mm+ turbo, methanol injection, and race fuel? What the hell are the pistons made out of? How big is the radiator? What kind of block would you need to support over 250 horse power a liter?
Help a V8 fag out here, these things are confounding to me.
>>16354531
apparently its using the stock iron pistons
Lets be honest here, it's a European engine.

the lima was only an 8 valve and the mustang was only rwd and heavier with only 500hp
and this car is only about 1 second faster and is over 1000hp
