What would i find that engine in?
Also would it be good for short track racing?
As this truck is just for arena racing, jumping and haulin azz is a must...lol
Was thinking of the 5.0 but can i get more power from the 2.3?
Think fuel injection is a must for jumping, as carbs can get banged around, flowts and stuff..
Race runs last for no more than 30 sec. never out of second, sometimes first gear.. Will be an automatic trany also. It has stick now.

Thanks Guys
