Ok, the Cosworth motor is off the table.......I couldn't pay that much sight unseen (plus the pics left more questions then answers). I did get a used bigger valve head set up by Esslinger (valves, port/polish, skim), so I'll see how it looks.
On the carb side I'm thinking of a few options and would like some input. I have the stock intake that I made an adapter for a Holley 350 2bbl on it now, but which one is better......fo
r power, streetability and somewhat mpg.
1. Holley 350 with modified stock intake
2. Short intake with 2 45 DCOE Webers
3. Custom intake with 37mm bike carbs
I'm new to the Pinto motors and some books to read. I did find 2 of David Vizzards books online (How to hot rod your 2.0 sohc ford and How to modify sohc ford engines) and a Des Hammill How to power tune your sohc Pinto and Cosworth for road and track.
Thanks for all the help.
I'm making the header now.
