I think I have come to a descision.

The 2.9 is holding me up. And it's only 150BHP at best ( well a little more with the cam and chip ). Too many obstacles to outweigh my enthusiasm and time at the moment.

I have bought a 4pot type 9 and am on the hunt for an engine. Think it will be a big downsize to a 1.8 CVH at first. May have a look at putting my twincam in.

Think longterm it would be an RS2K keeping it's EFI as I think it is lower than that on the DOHC..

Anyone running a 16V I4?

Got somone ringing me about a CVH tomorrow.

2.9 can go in the XR4X4 or get sold off, not sure yet.
