About

I bought this car about 4 years ago and then it was just the everyday base garnet red. Well on my way home from buyin it i saw 3 more just like it and i thought to myself "man i gotta change this" and thats when the silver came into my head. Shortly after that I wanted to change out the nutless 2.2l 4-banger and throw in somethin a little bigger. So i set my sights on a 3.1MPFI. Not soon after the 3.1 came into my hands my town was wrecked with a BIG flood and needless to say the 3.1 caught it due to the fact i couldn't move the car, and I barely got mine outta there. About a week later the 2.2 decided to crap out which gave me a perfect excuse to go tinkerin around with that 3.1. Well to make a long story short the motor went in and about 950 bucks later after spinning the bearings in the crank it was goin damn good. But recently I have had to do 2 complete rebuilds and countless top end reworks to get the bugs out. One of the rebuilds was done due to a cracked rear head and a cracked block thanks to my screwed up diagnostics teacher who doesn't get that 4500 RPMs in park can severely damage a motor. But now its goin and goin good for the most part. This thing has got some serious nuts, but after 3 years with the same motor its time to go with somethin even more powerful a L67 3.8L Supercharged V6. But that could be a little bit before her new power plant gets dropped in. So watchout you kids with these hopped up ricers. Haha, just playin, i'll let my car do the talking when the new power plant goes in......to be continued....well to continue with the motor package. I have recieved some insight on that particular swap (thanks ROLN) and careful consideration the new power plant will not be for this beretta. Instead possibly a 3.4L but we'll see how it goes...
