Dyno results: 2.6 liter short block

[JShadzi at aol.com]

You're not going to be pulling any I5 motors off their mounts w/o forced 
induction, I'll assure you of that.  The motor Chris used was supplied by Eurospec 
Sport, it was a short deck (IOW same deck height as the 2.2) block with 
95.5mm crank, cast pistons and a "custom length" rod, supplied complete.

How would you suggest opening up the intake on a CIS-3 car? - I'd like to 
hear your thoughts, this is assuming the air flow meter isn't going anywhere.

fair enough,to each his own. i guess i'm just too american for my own good, 
I won't be happy untill the motor pulls itself off the mounts and drives off 
without me destroying entire ecosystems in it's wake.
can I make the assumption the 2.6 is a stroker built from a VW vanagon crank 
and rods (2.5l i5 right?) and NG pistons?
as an after thought, i would venture a guess the the rich mix at high rpm's 
would be reduced somewhat with a more open intake... just a thought for the 
next one.
