It has been an ongoing project since 1994, and has a lot more power then I could ever hope to put to use on gravel, but it certainly is a croud pleaser I am curious to know more about the 24 valve version of this engine. Was that version ever turbocharged ? I am also interested in the 'short stroke' version of the engine, as it would be fun to put together a 4 valve short stroke engine with really long connecting rods to make a really nice noise at high revs and smoke the competition in the USA 'under 2.4 liter' class, rallying in this country. Thoughts? I can be reached at jlane@xxxx Have a good day!! John Lane
