Hello everyone!

A while ago on eBay there was a 500 and it had a high performance built 500 engine in it. In the add he had the www link to the engine builder in Italy. I never book marked the site. The Italian engine builder built some very impressive two cylinders and had build photo's and video of several of his engines in cars at the track.
Can any one come up with the website or the engine builder? Or any GOOD performance 500 engine buidlers!

Thanks,
Duane

Its probably not the one that you saw but Gozzoli in Maranello build very high spec engines for the 500 that are considered by some as the best available, roomer has it that some of the engines are bulit by engineers moonlighting from the other, better known firm up the road. Have a look here: http://www.gozzoli.it

The other places worth trying are:

Is Retro500 your site? Alistairs 1800 is interesting and I would like more info on his swap.

Yes the retro500.com site is mine, the aim is to create a resource/showcase for those planning to get a little extra performance out of their 500's

Alisters conversion looks great, I have some more pics to post which I will try to sort over the next couple of weeks. The Subaru boxer four fits really well in the space. I'm hoping that he will send me a more detailed spec soon.
