I Have just recently purchased a 77 ra23 that has the standard 18rc with extractors. What are my upgrade options??? I have a few hang ups though.
1. I want something that I can work on myself.(carbbie)
2. something that will be reliable. As this will be my main car so I won't be flogging the hell out of it ( well not all the time)
3. something that will slot straight in.
any help on this matter would be appreciated.
My thoughts are the 18rgu twin cam. Only because it should be a straight swap. and non fuel injected because I don't want to have to take in to a mechanic every time it needs a tune. I have reserves about turbo's as I don't want to over work the engine and kill it before its time. I may be wrong on these things so please fill me in on your thoughts.
thanks
