i've posted in the turbo forum with no responses so i thought i'd try here.
i have a chance to purchase a Cologne 2.8 turbo engine. it is coming from a Panoz sports car imported here from Europe for an engine upgrade to a V8. this 2.8 V6 was running when pulled. i'm wanting to know about installing it in front of my 1983 Ranger 4x4. my truck currently has a 2.8 and 5 speed tranny in it. anyone have any experience at all with this 2.8 turbo motor??
i'm sure i would have to change out the cam to get the torque and horsepower coming in at lower rpms, but is there anything else?
thanks in advance.
