the AMC 232 engine was slow, yes (it dragged the heavy AMC Rambler through the 1/4 in a whopping 20 seconds) but it could take a hardcore beating. That is the engine that lead to the 4.0L we now find in a lot of jeeps.
The 4.0L drags jeeps all over the place, giving them the reputation for being bulletproof. It is a fantastic engine for a nice and simple platform.

Dispit its low rating in side impact, CR put in on its list of best 50 cars for 2005, falling short only to the prius, and other toyota crap that one wants to drive other then soccer mom's and sean. So there.

As of these next two days I'm planning on getting rid of the following emission equipment. I wanted to post before hand to see if anyone knows something I don't about the effect of what I"m about to do.
Getting rid of:
-Air pump
-air controll valve
-air chamber
-relief silincer (eage8 can use this after chili night!)
-EGR valve
Of course I'll have to make custom block off plate to cover the wholes to the EGR and ACV valves' holes. and plug up all vacum lines etc. I was wondering how this would effect things like starting the car, the idle, the computer?
I read alot on this and came to the conclusion it wasn't a big deal.
Thanks guys

Yes, you will need to fab something else up to make the aux ports work, since you are yanking the ACV and Airpump. Also S5 NAs dont have an EGR valve.
