Something that got my attention on the tree of gum.... R28k price tag, is this legit ???

Im sure for that kind of money your can build a 328 motor stronger

yes saw this motor in speed and sound magazine for sale a while back, was brought in by one of those engine places

 

[Sabretooth tiger]

My NA E30 makes 190 hp in jhb I'm sure it will be over 200 @ the coast

You will need
1 x m3 crank
2 x 276 bittet cams ( if you reprofile the cams you willl need to machine the cam boxes)
Flowed head with M3 Trottles bolted one

Either a unichip or managemnet system

The alpina engine is a very good powerplant if I remember correctly , being that it can be driven everyday , etc but the price :nonono:

Are the throttles you talking about ex E36? Would you need an adaptor plate for this?

Oh wanted to say I think the company selling that motor is IPC or IPS in Midrand ???

Those engines are useless without the proper Alpina management system.
