peteretep Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 that mk2 has been for sale for ages, it hasnt been sold and relisted, he takes ages to reply and then the answers are shady Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidian Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 be wary if you wanna post the results on TM tho im not saying that its under powered or putting your car down at all dude, just saying if the output is a bit lower it might overshadow the reliability and effort put into the engine like when i had my delta dynoed for example.. it was pulling 80kw at the wheels with a partially unbolted flange (mad turbo pressure leak), but it was still pulling like maaaad. so the output figure doesnt do the car justice, nahmean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted April 21, 2006 Author Share Posted April 21, 2006 Ah yea fair point there, might just leave it off but have it done incase someone actually interested asks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikuni Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 Its a good ad tho man. Engine looks top notch and the condition the engine bay is in suggests that top dollar has been spent, which it has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lowlancer Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 Is it just me that thinks spending that much on a pinto is hard to imagine? I dont really know, maybe Ford people dont mind'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted April 21, 2006 Author Share Posted April 21, 2006 Na its just fucking awesome pretty much, why its got the ford label on it somewhere, makes it worth that much, like nike etc, cost 20c to make by little asian kids but worth 1000 times that much coz of label fuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defective Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 Is it just me that thinks spending that much on a pinto is hard to imagine? I dont really know, maybe Ford people dont mind'? its just cos its an old tech N/A dude, would have been much cheaper if it was something more popular. unique costs money, no way around it really. really, its only a true ford enthuiast that will pay the money for an engine like that. buy the motor, buy an anglebox stick the two together and youd have one beast of a car. presuming of course a pinto even fits in an anglebox.

Josh Posted April 21, 2006 Author Share Posted April 21, 2006 Yea thats what i was trying to say, guess i worded it wrong May as well as the box to that auction since wont be needing it anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 If I was looking of paying someone to build an engine I would buy it., Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a mate up here who had Pinto in his 105E a few years back. Twas mental. Went ballistic in a straight line, but a shit-scared kitten on a greasy vinyl floor would have put its handling to shame. And I think dad's old Beddie J1 truck had better stoppers.......
