Pinto Engine Conversion?

Bericht door H Pickup Lover »

Hello all,

Has anyone ever installed a Pinto 2.0 engine using the available kits?

Best Regards,

Hi Kat, Garric,

Not that I'm aware of. I think chances are the biggest in the UK.

In my opinion, the gearbox is the bottleneck, not the engine. That can be the reason why this conversion is not very common.

Thanks Ree,

Yes, here in the US our options are limited.

I've already purchased the kit in the photos and a good pinto 2.0 engine.

The kit is from the UK as you noted. I just need a bunch of photos and advice.

Thanks All,
Kat & Garric
