You can't be serious?
Here is a very streetable buggy with a 2110 making 300+ hp at the rear wheels.



I'm sure my 101.5 x 90 (2913cc) Scat cased turbo EFI will easily exceed that once it's completed.

No ETs posted????   260hp out of NA 2110 is pretty stout considering he got the size of the pistons wrong and a few other things.

What I was really thinking about was the power for the money. Buy it all for $7,000. Use the motor for a spare sell the rest. Seems like a bargain to me.

If it is a 260hp 2110, it won't be driveable on the street. It will have no bottom end and be very , very peaky, basically on and off,  and at $10 a gallon C16 will get expensive at 6-7 MPG. A fellow I met at Bonneville last year put together a new motor this year, a 2332 with BIG heads, cam and 51.5 Webers and made just over 240hp, a smaller motor with smaller heads and cam must really be stressed to make that much HP.  You'll want the tranny that goes with it too. and a race car without power train isn't really worth a whole lot. Save yourself some money and hassle and browse through here for an engine. I can tell you 160hp in a buggy is plenty for the street. I can hardly wait to try 200+  :-)

It probably made 260hp on an "ass dyno".  Hell my old 1600 with 40 Dell's made 150hp on my ass dyno!

That's what I was thinkin'. The man can't even get the parts right on the motor. The Wik front end would be cool. I know a few guys that would kill for one of those.
