                Oh my fucking retard

                I used to have a ranger with a dual plug 2.3..........it had 13hp on a good day

                I was seriously contemplating a 16hp briggs/straton engine swap

                It wouldn't even hold 70 on I state unless it was downhill and with the wind

                      what? The 2.3L has 98 hp stock. I believe the swap i would be doing the 1988 turbo coupe thunderbird has 190hp stock but we are overhauling the engine and its going to be pushing around 300 to 400hp.

                        On just a rebuild? Hook me up with your connection bro. That machinist must be sprinkling fairy dust on the engine components to get those results.:rolleyes:

                          300 is plausible with the mods I mentioned, although 400 is pushing it without some serious internals and fuel and spark bits, as well as an ecu that will work with all the upgrades. That said dude you'll go a lot farther on this forum by not calling out people you've have probably never met, listing some 750hp engine for an XL was it? If you mean a Galaxie XL... cool, which engine is he running? I'm not flaming you yet even if it seems that way some of the guys already have and you're too new to realize, but continue like this and it'll get ugly.

                                  We will be completely rebuilding and replacing parts on the engine it wont be stock at all......My dad just told me it is a ford XL and ill show you pictures, my bad if im ticking some people off lol Tell me what you think. I just thought it would be cool to tell people what I did and think i should do to my pickup. I am not a serious motor head "i am the computer guy" lol I leave all that motor stuff up to my dad, I'll buy the parts and help him put them in and get it running when i got the money.

                                          What's with a carbs on the v8, I've never seen them at an angle like that before?
