Nothing yet, but looking for a decent Fiat X1/9 or 1st series VW Scirocco. Need money first, though.

Love to have a v8 mustang (preferably cobra, GT350, or BOSS 302) or some late 60's early 70's mopar. Unfortuneately I need some money and maybe a garage (house) first.

The 2.3l turbo is the same motor as the SVO Mustang and Merkur XR4TI? Isn't rated at 205hp and 248lb-ft of torque? There was a 85 SVO at the strip the other night and it ran the 1/4 in low 13s. I don't know what the SVO had for mods.

Just about that. If it was an SVO running 13's he probably had some minor mods done. Im shooting for around 300+ hp to the wheels running 20+lbs of boost. Like I said in my previous post, Im not sure which car I want to drop this in because I LOVE road course racing (FC shines) but that cost a lot more money than 1/4 racing (Solid Rear Axle is the only way to go). We'll see where I end up.
