For an AWD truck/pickup in '91 that was officially rated at 280 hp and 360 ft·lb tq, and did 0-60 in 5.3 secs, I wouldn't call them POS's. 5.3 is Ferrari 348, Vette and 350z turbo neighborhood.

I knew they were fast, but they had a ton of problems. That's what I was getting at. One of my friends back then had a National and a Syclone. He had so many issues with those engines and the rear end couldn't handle all of that power. I remember he had to replace the rear end twice in the year+ he owned it.

Sorry, back to the BMW...it's awesome!

Would love to hear the sound that this thing makes and see it in action on the road

Wondering if they cracked the block open, or if it was untouched.

edit: nevermind... Mahle forged pistons.
