Hi Everyone
As the topic states i'm looking for a little advice on an engine conversion i've made the decision to put a V8 in my Xr6 Au3. Please no one say "JUST BUY ONE" cause that not what i want to do. I'm weighing up 2 options at the moment 1. Try to get my hands on a T3 motor (There is no real time limit the project as i've still got a little while left on my P's) 2. Get a 220 KW Xr8 or T2 motor and take the time and work the motor (i'm a mechanic so labor costs me nothing) My questions are how much better is a T3 motor then a worked 220Kw motor ?? The car will be the daily drive so it still got to be civil to drive day to day. And what sort of power figures could i expect from a worked 220Kw ?? Not really interested in super or turbo charging at this point. The conversion is still a little while off but i will be looking at buying an engine and all the other thing i need towards the end of the year. So any input and advice would be a good help. Cheers Lorenz |
