I was looking in the guide and found a 1978 pinto wagon with the 2.8 V6 2bbl. it is rated at 120hp, factory weight of 2645# and is on a 22.04 weight break (V-stock). Has anyone ever ran one of these? I think it was rated about 6 hp more than the 2300, but has .5 less compression, and smaller valves and cam. Does this engine have any potential? Don Jackson
