XR4ti if its north american. Should be good rear end as many were lsd. Heavy engine around 450lbs with tranny but can make great power for next to
no dollars. The engine is very tall and quite wide with the turbo sticking out the side and the intakes on the other--probably a difficult fit in
book chassis. You can very cheaply get over 300 hp out of these before having to go to a big turbo and hence lag.
Its a tight fit.
