After seeing the "beefing up your engine" title I was thinking--how much beef does your engine have? I made this chart off the service manuals I found lying around my chair.

Will, you do realize that the 2.3 ford came with 2 different size main journals over the years, the early (< 89) motors had larger journals while the newer ones (>89) have smaller ones, right? Surprisingly, the small journal motor is good for more power. Either way, with 1.25 mains per cylinder (try finding that in a V8) you can't kill the bottom end in one of these things, even at insane amounts of turbo horsepower.

Hmm, looks like the 300 wins out of the smaller engines on the list ;cheers;

....and the 7.3LPSD on the bigger ones.
