How about direct injection in 1952 & a top speed of 260km/h!!!

Jeez! $15K for a fiat engine. Don't doubt it, but christ! You really have to love Fiats to spend that on a 16V 4cyl to make a standard 140hp!

I already know what engine I'd build for $15K & it would have more power than any VW ever built on pump fuel too! (maybe not the veyron though! haha) That would have to run on alcohol! Nothing wrong with that!

Just for you though Gordon, cause I don't mind them either!

$15,000 just cylinder head (sorry)

I wouldn't be surprised if the engine was close to 30-40k. I'm talking about the Abarth 16v, not the 8v 2L supercharger one.

that 131 looks insane.

anyone heard of Guy Croft?

thats what im talking about!!!

$15K for a 4 cyl. 16v head! That makes it even worse!

That would really have to float your boat!

The engine I was talking about "was" the Abarth 2L 16V from the series 1. it made a whopping 140hp! Check it out!

If your talking that kind of money for an engine, I could build a complete car that would rape a veyron in a straight line & still be streetable! haha

i don't know man...maybe i'm wrong.

but, try find some info about it.

but, 140hp is heaps. !!
