    Don't forget about the BMW Turbo-Diesel in the 85-86 Lincoln Mark VII's. Those only weigh a total of 445 pounds wet. And come with automatic overdrive (a ZF unit). That's the weight of a 250.

    4bt is a 12v with two of the pistons missing so we have tons of parts for them around.

    what do yall think about not having power steering? the motor will be a fair bit heavier than the one that came in it but i kinda like the simplicity of nonpower car. what do yall think?
