Turbo 2600cc Isuzu engine. Fits in fairly easily, and despite being a long stroke worker, there's Gemini's that run 9s with these things quite readily

rodeo 2.6 motor i think is called a 4ze1(ori).good torquey motor,looked in to going with a 1gg supercharger a while back,would be a good conversion.motor looks alot like gemini 1.6 but with injection.rodeo box (5spd) is apparently bloody strong.

heh heh, there ae a few quick rally geminis, but no idea why there aren't many fast geminis on the street..
actually i do..
it's sumfing abowt de typez of pplz, or dudez, wot allways trie to do dem upz. is gotta be fooly sik maatez,
and they basically have NFI what they are doing. it would be great for someone to actually show them how it should be done, but in the end, they won't learn anyway.
therez juz sumfin wrong wid dem... but they still pull sik 9z n 10z tho, but that was with a broken windscreen wiper, or maybe a sticker was falling off that would have given them 10hp more  but next time, with more boost and NAWWWWSSSS
hell even a 4AGTE gemmy would be quicker than most of the 1.8 or whatever the pizza motor is (piazza?).
all you need to do is choose a motor, make custom engine emounts and gearbox mounts, put in a strong enough diff and go driving.
EXACTLY the same as ANY CAR. there is no mystery to it..
fit motor, drive car 
and i agree, unless you want a gemeni for some sentimental reason (like me with old corollas) start with a better base, something that still handles, or comes with a better motor stock.
Cya, Stewart
