Best intake for 24V conversion?

I know there have been some topics about this, but none of them really answered the question wich intake set up gives the best performance on a 24V transaxle. I use the 75 V6 intake but with the openings from the 164 24V manifold welded to the 6C plenum, the short intake tubes are cut 164 24V QV chr...

Zamani actually it's our car but my girlfriiend and the kids use it as their dailey driver.

V6 engine suggestions

I currently have a 166 3.0 engine in my girlfriends 155 V6, but this engine will go into a 155 racer project. The original 2.5 engine needs some service like new belt and adjusting the valve clearance, when the engine is really hot you can hear the crank make a clock noise (don't they all!) So this ...

I had a Milano 2.5 for a short eriod and this car had reinforced bars in the doors, like you see on more modern cars, these doors must weigh a lot more than the euro doors without the protective bars.

I've got SBS carbon ceramic front and back and they are OK, but if the pagid blue weren't twice the price of the sbs pads i would have chosen Pagid again. I probably prefer the feel of the DS3000 over the sbs, might be a little more agressive , but i think my disks will last longer now. SBS probably...

MD I doubt it that the stopping distance has improved at lot. At least i wasnt expecting it. and this wasn;t the reason for changing to outboard brakes. For a streetcar this mod is a waste of time and money, but so are a lot more changes i made to my car. Before the upgrade my brakes would start to ...
