 Umm... thing... with motor... dyno curse not withstanding.
   
 
 
 Think big, lots of seats, no overdrive, terrible gas mileage, just the car for cross-country trips at the butt-crack of dawn.

 From what I can gather its 15 (+/- approx 2) so far. Only about 9 saying they'll dyno.
 
 Also might have a modified 83 volvo 242 turbo coming.

				| Sucks I won't be able to make it. I was really hoping to get down there after this engine swap was done. This big floating death trap I'm currently stuck on won't be back up there until a few days after. On a side note I'm having a lot of trouble typing this because the chair I'm using has casters on it and we're moving a bit tonight. Hopefully I'll make it to one of these events. Until then, later haters. |  |

 KA24DE
 
 Like I said, stock baseline.
  It is a really clean S14 though. Eventually he and I are going to do a turbo KA24 build with standalone engine management on it. Turbo KA24 builds are rare, but even in a turbo motor there's no replacement for displacement. We want to prove that an SR isn't the only way to make power in a 240SX.
 
 Either that or an RB25/26 swap. We haven't looked into that as much though.

 That 240 is craving an LSx...
