  2. i think i have sorted the strange misfire and it doesnt seem to hold back as much when warm but still lacking vr power, its an early dizzy obd1 2.8 iv rebuilt moast the engine includint, skimming the head, reseating valves, complete head rebuild, new piston rings and so on, baby'd it for over 1000k to run her in a little and then took it through the revs gradualy, the other day i decided right its time to see what she's got so i raced my friend in a standard engined e30 325 touring and i lost, surely something is wrong there, or is it just e30 325's are faster than i thought but even my frie
