Re: 89 mirage with 2.3 stroker

Thanks Mark. I couldn't remember what all you did to it.

I found a little info out on the motor from the guy I bought it from. I guess the motor has just over 1,000 on it.

This is what I was told:
"The motor is capable of around 800hp. The oiling system was modified to handle high loads and high rpm's. It has 0.03 over Ross Pistons and Eagle (or Manley) rods. The rotating assembly was balanced and lightened. The head was fully ported and has stainless steel valves with a custom 5 angle valve job. It has comp street/strip (I think its stage 2) cams in it along with crower springs and titanium retainers. ARP bolts everywhere."

Motorcycle cop pulls up next to me on UNI and says "Want to race?"
Me- "I don't think you would stand a chance."
Cop says "probably not" and drives off.
