    nando, I know I've PM'd you with multiple questions about your stroker build, but did you put the engine on a dyno for the 210 number, or is that just a best guesstimate based on approx % drivetrain loss?

    I don't have their crate motor, but I'm using their pistons for my 2.8

    210bph (much less at the wheels, silly awd), top speed is unknown, somewhere north of 135 (E30s are aero limited anyway). my one and only 1/4 mile was a 15.172 (it's a lot harder than it looks!). The big things I could improve on are the exhaust (i'm using an older/garbage IE shorty header design with a 2.5" Y pipe, stock 200k cat) and a better tuned timing table when I have a chance to go back to the dyno. and of course less weight :p

    if you just use motronic to run it, expect less than 200bhp. Jim also likes wierd cam profiles, probably for emissions reasons. I went with a schrick instead (dbilas and catcams are also nice) for better performance.
