Someone fancy ripping this out of that 400 crappy FWD shell and putting it into a 300 series

Hmm.. do they have proof of that power though

HAHAHA! Relisted due to timewaster? NO! THE POS DIDN'T SELL!! MUHAHAHAHA Just kidding.

Well...kinda...I'd like to see the dyno print, put it that way. I think the propshaft might be in danger in a 300...

If the insurance was the same as for a 400 TD, I'd put a 400 TD motor in a 340 in a shot. Chesh's brothers 460 TD beat a GLT at Santa Pod. Owned by a FWD derv that can double its MPG...that's harsh ownage.

cheers

i'd be surprised if you can get 300+ bhp from that engine without race-spec tuning - i mean its only a 1.7.. even with modern technology an evo can push 200bhp/litre (which is nearly what that one needs to do), and that needs servicing every 3000 miles, not to mention the silly turbo on it..
