Wow 3.2L manual. Wonder how that would go... First mod on the agenda would be the drop a 4.0L motor in it from a later E-series.

No idea if they would because I know peanuts about the 3.2L engine but I cant see why they wouldnt. 4.0L engines are cheap as chips aswell. I won one on ebay for $162 about 4mths ago that was perfect.

yup get da 4.0L heapz eazy to make go fazta (ok i give up here)

seriously get a 4.0 conversion, would give you the biggest power increase youdd get bar turbo.

easy as piss to do you can get a whole ea>eb for under $200, grab what you need out of it, crush it, and you wont have spent much.

BUT, if your sticking with the 3.2L (ouch) speak to wade cams (they are sponsors here) they should have somthing for it.

you can actualy buy au motors with modified sumps thatll fit right in read troymans document on how to do it ... if you do though i would seiriously use the el broadband manifold with the el ecu you mite want to get thermo fans and the wireing loom :D

EDit:: Think the vct's go for around 800 now with 3 month replacement garantee or something

I second that! Never seen inside a 3.2.
Don't get rid of the motor, it's unique and rare these days; Im sure there are some advantages to be had with the shorter stroke design...6 throttle body setup, as I mentioned in the other 3.2 thread, or maybe implementing some form of VCT. What did the 3.2 litre engine redline at?
