Yes a Turbo 5.0 lost to my 2.3 not once but 3 times

Track was not prepped as most cars had radials, this was a V8less race

I got stuck in outlaw with my M/Ts sportsmans (bias) and a few V8 cars were in outlaw

Turbo 5.0 car had 18" rims and radials, he ran 123 mph in 1 of the races with me

here are the vids left click first then save

Cool deal . I REALLLLLY want to build a 2.3 motor . Those things are animals .
1979 2.3 T

I own a 1979 ford mustang turbo. It is 2.3 liter with oil cooled turbo charger. do you know what it might be worth? It has a newley rebuilt original engine including turbo charger. Needs a little body work. Everything is original.

Mine is all stock 2.3 stuff, i found a few things on Ebay cheap.

A good place to read more and find parts for these 2.3s is turboford.org

Hard to say whats a good price, make it look like a Indy pace car (clone)that would help it sell, a real 1 is worth alot of cash now.
Not sure of the top value but I will give you 50 dolalrs cash AND -- a model of 32 Ford Coupe - let me know what you think about that

:)
Thanks for bringing a 3 year old thread back
