I would check the Rennlist site classifieds for engines and prices - there always seem to be a few there.

For straight-out hp, the 3.2 offers more than the 3.0 and the Motronic fuel injection system is supposed to be better.

If you wanted to save some money and don't have any emmissions requirements holding you back, you could go with a good SC motor and a pre-74 exhaust system. Only a little less hp and you might save some dough.

I think either engine would make a good upgrade. In the same situation, I think I'd go with the latter, but I'm used to that engine so I'm biased.

Thumbs up

I have had both motors in my car.

For HP, I prefer the 3.2, I also like the FI of a 3.2 better than the 3.0.

However, 3.0 is typically more reliable.

Life is always difficult decissions.

Tks guys, I think I will stay with the 3.0 It should be a much easier installation (and cheaper).
Any good late 3.0 (complete) out there?
