z00m-ZooM, it purrs like a kitten
(or maybe better said, roars like a Lion). It is on the road and breaking it
in... But the Dyno was more than it could take. We ran 3 identical
pulls, but the time it sat on the farm was as hard on the seals as we
expected.
We have confirmed that the motor is a "old
school" 4-port (from a RX-4 or REPU). Well, I was able to find and buy a new
rebuilt motor from a local who was liquidating. The plan is to swap the
motors. Then I will rebuild the current old one with EFI and maybe a turbo.
More on that when we get there...
Update 11/11/2011: Still working on other
required projects with family, house and shop. I have not been able to
finish and clear out the shop to make room for the swap and required
finishing interior. It has been so long, that I may start over (since I will
be swapping the engine) and repaint the whole car.
