    my budget is around 6-8000 i though one maybe better than the other from what i've been told the ford has more power and the toyota handle better threw the corner.

      Because usually the toyotas are lighter. I would run a 2000 Ford. The parts aren't as easy to find as the 2300's but you'll be 300 pounds lighter if it's # / cc.

        what are the rules for your class/track ??

        I like yota's... lighter, corner well(more corner speed), easy to work on suspensions, and when built right can keep up on the straights. But you will spend more getting near same power level as the fords. 87mm 3T or 90mm 20R or big boy 94mm 22R. Will need lots of head work to let them breathe.

          Circle performance in Brockton MA builds these darlings, uses stock head and block.

            Rules always dictate which has the advantage. CC to weight with no min weight goes to the 3TC. Vacuum rules go to the 22R. Shear HP goes to the Ford, especially if there is no CC limit. But rules will tell you what is best. Good luck,

                          in 1-lb per cc would be very competitive with a good flowing head.
                          stage 5 head or compatible and stage 5 or SLR 314 cam etc..
