Not a fiat coupe as such but the engine from 1 with a little mention of the car.
Page 47 of the may edition.
20vt engine with a sierra cosworth t5 box.

i dont know, it just says " A T5 Borg Warner gearbox from a sierra cosworth"
The part i like is "It has a Fiat 2-litre 20-valve turbo five-pot engine from a fiat Coupe, which is a real performance engine that not everyone knows about"
He also says that the engine is bullet proof.... chinny but then, it is in what looks like some sort of Caterham se7en.

Oh yes... just had MOT.

It's very very silly but someone had to do it!

It is, if you feed it fresh oil when it needs it and warm it up fully before doing anything. Testament to this is the fact it will take 600 bhp with what are actually just 'optimisations' rather than re-engineering big chunks of engine.

Exactly.
Any 2-litre with 340hp, 240000km's, 40-50 trackdays, unrepaired, healthy as a whistle, must be pretty bullet proof. smile
