    Been a while

    Been a while since I was last on the forum and I have to be honest I'm only dropping on quickly to see if I can interest anyone in something I'm selling... sorry..

    To forum mods
    I wanted to email you to ask permission but could not find a link to allow me to email you. Could one of you guys email me please so I can discuss what I have, it's of interest I'm sure for anyone looking to 4wd a Punto and run 340bhp!

    This is a genuine ask not spam, I have a grale which I recently crashed but the running gear and engine are all fine.

    What do you need? Do you want to advertise it for sale?

    Yes ideally post it on the for sale section, I'm looking for 3k for the complete car which if I don't get offers i'll list on ebay, I've also posted on the grale forums.
    Thing is this was the most powerful road going 16v in the uk, I just want to see the engine (which was a Fiat Coupe 16vt) go into something as a complete transplant rather than break the car for bits.

    Paul, if this goes in a GT it would be beyond crazy... 400bhp/tonne crazy!

    I should point out that as well as the full remap with 630cc injectors, we did a top end rebuild and clutch change for this just over a year ago. It has not missed a beat in the last year, and the 340bhp was with the old GT28RS 0.64. It now has a GT2871R 0.64, which really has turned it into the perfect road/track car. Fantastic off-boost driveability, excellent MPG, fast spool, huge mid-range torque and a stonking top end! It is an exceptional engine.
