what do you want to do? the engine is very limited in its porting so you can only get just so much hp. also even if you add hp the big problem is the engines design as it stands wont hold up to too much rpm over abuot 2500rpm for any extended period of time with the full load that this truck applies to it. I know, I am the builder of the fastest 230s that will live in the usa. I have one in stock trim that with stock gears and tires I drive all over. This is done at 55-60 mph. I am a professional engine designer. re there any special tricks???
