Hi guys, I'll like to heard something from you american enthusiast: I got from a friend a semi-assembled IMSA Mustang. I wondered to mill by myself a good couple of valvle covers for the V8......... shit! this car is equipped with a shitty L4.... it's very thiny with a lot of empty space around......

someone know something to say about this engine? it's a 1.7 litres, L4 twin cam (yep another good pairs of pulleyes :D) turbo for approx 500+ HP

any refs or info, friends?

Someone know if the engine is the same or derived from the Zakspeed Capri?

The car is the same IIRC

Before I sold the Tamiya kit, I was planning to get this kit to put the engine into the Zakspeed so I guess it works vice versa ;)

This car is the Zakspeed Capri with a Mustang body. It's not a bad model. At the time of release it was welcome because there was not much for the racecar enthusiast to build in plastic.

I'm building the Monogram Motorsports Mustang. I'm doing it oob, just want a quick build. I'm almost done. I'm waiting for the body to fully dry before clear coating it. Yeah, it has a tiny 4 banger.
