Hi guys.
I am interested to see what power figures guys are getting from their pintos.
What is the most power anyone has seen one make?

220BHP aty the flywheel (Naturally Asperated) with a decent Pinto is do-able these days, I have heard stories of a 240HP NA but that was a stroker engine.

Danny, powered by shetland?
What about turbo pintos? is there any massive benefit running big valves?
I made 264hp last week from a turbo pinto and i am starting to look where i can unlock some more power from.

definetly go for big valves
horsepower will only be limited by the amount of boost you're willing to give it
