Hi all,

Tony Lum has determined that an 85 5000CD Turbo has a KH motor. (Thanks
Tony!) There is one available CHEEEEAP. According to Huw's Website Of
Knowledge this engine is a 2.1, puts out only 140HP, but 200ft*lbs of torque
(seems high).

Is this a good candidate for a 4kqt conversion, eventually EFI?

Any KH-specific limitations?

Can this engine make good, reliable power(like 225-250HP with good torque
down low) when breathed on? It seems to be starting at a disadvantage from
later Turbo motors.

Thanks.

Cheers,
