Default WANABE.....the continuing story

Been in touch with the local Cobra club President...John Redman. Good fella and very helpful.

Having thought about the Lexus engine more.........I dunno....not sure I like made in Japan under the bonnet. Not saying the engine is no good......just think I would like to keep the car true to label.

Spoke to a local performance shop,to convert a 302 over to injected, he reckons it is more expensive to do this, than to buy a new engine & gear box set up.!?

Is this right? 6-10K to change over! (his figures)

By the way saw a DAX machine. 302 3 speed auto. Small boot and tight foot wells Tubular design. Wanabe didn't know if this was good or not....so just looked impressed when told.

Can any one tell me what the best approach is to increase the power a 302 auto and what sort of ball park bucks we are talking. I have a stuffed left ankle hence the auto.
