Had two  131 super mirafioris the 1.6 and a 2.0 sports but Always wanted to make a nice Tuned 1.8 As they were a good balance between revs and torque. Both rusted away🙁

The kit car has the 2.0 fiat twin cam lump in it. In the next couple of years it'll be going spare if I get my way.  :y

Speaking of Fiat.

a pretty Fiat Dino with the 2.4 V6 from the Ferrari Dino would be nice.

I imagine they cost a bob or two these days.

Apparently there's some kind of hiatus on engine development in F1 with new hybrid engines due for 2025 which they're wanting to make sound like a "proper" racing car engine rather than the subdued ones they're running now.

Yeah, I worked with a guy in the 90's who had one of those. Very nice. :-*

It wasn't stupidly quick, but that engine made all the right noises and loved to rev.
