    LOL. I was being sarcastic, I don't necessarily feel that way.

        Just find a DOHC head for the m20.

        Easy as pie.

          You just have to be a good driver, don't fuck up the corner and you won't need the torque ;)


          How did I go from defending 5.0's to defending F20C's and s14's?

              ...I like my motors the same way I like my women. ;)





























              ...And I like my women with a large displacement and a hot single camshaft. :rofl:

                Its not that good of a motor and it not light. Fords blow up a lot. There just not as good as chevys or chysler products. Ford has always lagged. They just arnt a verry good motor comparied to what else is out there.

                Edit: If I was gonna install a Iron small block it would have to be a 340 with the 5.9s FI setup on it.

                      Im glad this thread is alive again...

                      I cant decide whether or not I want to put an M50 or S50 in my soon to be autox/track car. It would be nice to have the S50 but the boosted potential of the M50 really is quite appealing

                      I feel like a boosted application might not be the best for the parking lot, but on the track it would be the greatness
