Someone just racked up a 740 turbo. She was not hurt but the car looks like it got hit by a train. So anyway a nice B230 turbo motor has become available. I have a project car on the go and I am trying to decide what block and fuel system to use.
I plan to drive the car so I want power, but I want half decent fuel economy at the same time. Are b230s better on gas. I have a B21 right know and I know it eats gas, so I was hoping the newer turbos might be a bit more efficient. There is also a B23 block kicking around the yard. Which would be the best block to start with?
