I love the build. I have an 88 that my father bought brand new and today it only has 60k on the clock. I am finally ready to start building mine. I was curious, how much are you into the motor alone? I’ve always dream browsed on boport. The website has come a long way and they seem to be good quality. I also know that there simply aren’t many options when it comes to these LIMA motors outside of sprint racing stuff which is all N/A building.

Also wondering, how far can these factory block/rotating assemblies go? If I were to build from the head up?

I’m a huge fan of 2.3 turbos and the fox platform in general. This has to be the nicest turbo coupe I’ve ever seen. By far! That engine looks perfect, that rare as F&@k motorsports valve cover! You’ve got it all man! How much to build me a the same engine?

If you're looking to free up some more power, try converting to electric power steering and use one from a Volvo S40. Your factory high pressure line will fit just fine. I did this on my 88 TC and got rid of the whining factory pump and cleaned up the engine bay. Alternator relocates to where the PS pump use to be. Very nice car and build!

Ray Soden 12 valves are easy. Just about how much fuel and air you can shove into them. This truck has a turbo, fuel system, head studs, and some basic pump mods. Stock engine.
