1980 Ford Pinto
2.3 currently N/A ride with a roundy rounder cam.
Plan is getting a 100shot. Then when this motor fails drop in a 2.3 Turbo with nitrous. Should be fun with it only being 2385 factory weight.

Welcome!
Im gunna jack your wheels for my bobcat! LOL Wat no pics of your super rare valvecover? LOL i seen this car on turboford. You,jd and Pinturbo75 are the reasons i bought my bobcat and why im swapping the 2.3t outta my 88 TC into it.
Thanks everyone. I have been trying to find a clean pinto for the right price since Joe Morgan's turbo pinto video out on the internet. So you can tell i have been at it for a while. lol
Just to update this thread with some more progress. I put a T-5 transmission in the care over the weekend. It made it a joy to drive now. I am putting a 100 shot on the car in the next few weeks. So my next update to this thread will be with some track times.
