parts will be cheaper for it then your 240 or that bmw

plus i bet that 2.3 will run better NA then either of those 2


thats just plain false lol. the mustang barely breaks 100hp, is heavier than both, and the parts aren't cheaper than the 240.

if the series has cylinder restrictions it will also have NA vs FI restrictions. you won't be able to do much with the engine within your class most likely.

the 240 is cheaper to mod, is a few pounds lighter, and makes more power.

not a hard choice.

do what KoJ said and message him your classing. whatever he suggests will be the best choice.

send me you rules and ill make a suggestion. and give you some pointer to help you get started


Will do, as far as I remember it's pretty standard stuff as far as safety and remaining stock

Guy with the 240 was shady, guess I won't be getting that particular one, but I did track down 2 more, but ones a convertible..

yeah you don't want to deal with that you're going to need a factory roof im betting, im going to tell you right now, we have mini stock classes up and down california, and at some of the tracks they are very competitive and fast, i dont think ive ever seen a 240

around here the chevette scene was going pretty strong not sure on how many are still doing it though. people would have 20 or 30 chevettes sitting around being built to race or used as donors.

Ah. Well you can get non-turbo ones too but they are just as gutless as stock 240s.
