But it's power to weight ratio which makes your car fast or not. Ba's are heavy. about 100kg more than my EL fairmont and I can run high 7's in my EL with zorst in intake mods with a poor start. So there not that special...................yes i have watched all the u-tube vids and it doesn't enspire me to buy a BA XT unless a turbo or fit 3.9diff gears then it will rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Probably look at a BA turbo there going for around $18000 now for a good example. Although if you under 25 insurance could be a problem.

I will tell you what is gay, these young blokes in a mildly worked gemini trying to take on a BA Turbo out of a corner. These guys have serious issues if they thought there 1600cc isuzu carbi engine could pull out infront of a BA turbo. Although I have seen gemini's fitted with 13B rotary's and they fly.

they make s**t loads more then the single cam NA6's dont they, i would say you would be able to get over 200rwkw with a heavy cams.

Yeah heaps more power... but the weight of the BA is killer. Mine is 1890kg + driver + stereo. So over 2 tonne... they need the extra power! 200RWKW would be a big ask... but with heavy cams as you say, its probably achievable! |

mine made 178 without a tune, but I reckon the dyno must have been a bit lenient, it felt sorry that I was the only car there that looked stock.

Smiley Ran a 15.1 with his 178RWKW... goes to show what weight can do. |

so a 140odd rwkw e series would be about the same as a 175-180rwkw BA in terms of quartermile times?

As a rough comparison i'd go with yes. 140od would run almost a 15 flat if not lower. |

as per my signature my au went 15.3@90mph with a 2.1 60 footer with only 114 rwkw(the car still had the 10yr old original exhaust, put on a 2.5 mandrel system and made 136 on the same dyno) The au's are lighter than b series, but not quite as light as an e series. The ba motor is really gona liven things up in six months
