      A lightly modded M42.
      Or possibly SC'd

      Why cause i really dont care for HP, and that would be more than fast enough for me.

              ...or an S62B50 so I can have shittons of torque to warp the chassis with.

                  That picture alone is fucking badass. How'd you snag an F1 motor?

                    Slow, overpriced, and to many asian kids have them and think they are fast.

                      ^^ It belongs to a good buddy here in town whose father owns a fiber optics company, the pictures were taken at his hanger. It goes to the long-tailed, FINA-liveried McLaren F1 GTR (chassis 21R) that competed at 24H LeMans in 1997. It was pretty amazing to have my car sitting right next to a motor that is worth easily 100 times more than it.

                      Sadly, I couldn't source the sequential gearbox that mated to it, so swapping it in the e30 is out. :(

                        slow? ok.

                        The Boxer engine sound is Sexual.

                          Yes they are slow.

                          I don't really like the sound of them even though I have a Subaru. They all sound like they are back firing or just tuned improperly.
