Re: small v-6 engine specs and recs
best RWD option would be to take a turbo i4 2.3 From a mustang SVO, or a Turbo coupe.
since its turbo if you work it right it can have a nice low end and it can make nice power. or you can use a mustang v6..but thats kinda big...Ford doesn't have any really nice RWD small v6, you could always look into mating a Focus or ZX2 Zetec to a european RWD tranny, that will let you build a small, light motor that can have some nice low end. A zetec with bolt-ons can make a buggy (probably around 800-1200lbs?) move VERY quickly. Ford just SUCKS w/ quality v6's...more so w/ small v6's
