Ke20 Project

[sleepercorty]

just some pics of ke20 i bought don't know what going to do with it yet, either paint it hot pink and white wall it and keep it std, or put a v8 in it

looks like a good fun project. what V8 were you planning?

 

is that your val hardtop in the background? that looks awesome. a chrysler V8 would make an awesome donor if your not worried bout weight distribution!

yeh 360 mopar would be good but think I'm going to keep it std there arnt many std ones getting around anymore. that is my g/f vg 2 door in back ground finished it about 3 months ago

sorry couldnt bring myself to put a v6 commodore motor in it just not right, good conversion just not my thing.

 

some more picsspent last 2 days degreasing and painting

I'm going to keep it all original as i already have 2 turbo toys need one slow car

slight change of plans for this car as i couldnt find any good pink colours i have decided to paint it ford light blue, also i have decided that is needs a turbo because i need 3 turbo cars 2 just arnt enough anymore. I'm going to keep all the factory brakes, gearbox, diff and motor and just going to do a basic blow through std carby with bigger secondary jets. it has to be an easy bolt off if i ever want to return it to std so there will be no holes cut for intercoolers and so on. an mate of mine has a ke20 with ca18 turbo on 4k, std carby and it makes 115rwhp, allthough I'm not doing this to be superfast just so it has enough to be nice to drive so i will probably aim for about 90rwhp plenty.

the turbo is off a ford courier i was told
