Hi, am new here and am seeking advice or info on how to proceed with re-engining a converted '83 VD FF or possibly SV car. I'd mostly prefer to keep it CSR at this point in time. I'd appreciate your thoughts / input on getting this car back on the track in some fashion. the car was SARRC champ in '87 with Scirocco mtr. It is in good condition but has no motor. Has Hewland MK9, McCann body, frame and suspension in vgc. Certainly some form of vintage or possibly regional competition I'm thinking. That leads to :
What engine to build and install?
2.0 pinto
2.3 pinto
16v Toyota
Zetec
Duratec
I am trying to understand what would be the better as regards power&reliblitity per $ in consideration on where/what it would run.
Or,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, should it go back to FF?
I very much would like to hear your thoughts
Best to you all, Scott Nevin Greer, SC
