86 Samuria, needs more power
« on: September 06, 2004, 02:14:28 PM »
I just purchased an 86 Samuria with 109,000 miles on it that needs more power.  I have an 88 that has an V-6 Lighting conversion that I paid $15,000 for but don't want it because the springs had to be turned over and it is 6 inches too high.  I needed an low unit to put into my double decker trailer.  I will sell the v-6 unit for $10,000.
Does anyone know how I can add more power to the 1300 cc engine and still keep the unit low to the ground.  Is there a Turbo unit I can add?
Thanks
Glenn

Does the 2 liter need a rise Kit?  I cannot raise it because , it will not fit in my trailer.

Why don't you just let the air out of the tires on your v6 rig and put it in the trailer?  on the 1.6 conversion I have seen people take the 1.3 oil pan and take the 1.3 pickup tube cut it and weld it to the 1.6 pickup tube about half way up the tube so you can run a 1.6 engine with a 1.3 pan and keep your rig lowered.

I heard the call of the Turbo  ;D
No, there isn't a turbo kit, but I
can build a turbo header and supply
the setup

needs to get a EFI unit to add teh extra
fuel that the turbo motor will need
