The latest M-B AMG sedan is the "little" CLA45, I has a two liter turbo four
rated at 355 hp. That's 135 more than my old SVO Mustang's turbo 2.3, which
was pretty hot snot in '86!

Considerations for a future year motors for the Salt Flats car. Just 
some thoughts and interest questions...

What are choices for a twin or sohc  engine just under 3 liters? all 
motor ideas (ie no power adders). Current record is 200.xx

What are the choices for a just under 2 liter 4 banger?

Anyone interested in building an Alpine motor, with transmission, for 
the salt car?  It will have to be a goer, lol...  current record is 178 
and change.... motor only, no blower or NOS.

Having just spent a box full of money on this motor, if you wanna play 
anything that is to be built needs to have readily available speed 
parts!  Custom is NOT the way to save money, lol...
