ha ha.......the victor dont compare with a mk1 scort carl..........but a 2.3 chevette HSR would.......they are about 5K to buy not the ridiculous price that mk1/2 scorts make these days......proper independant rear suspension not something off constables haywayne cart! lol
and the montego/maestro turbo makes the same bhp at the wheels as an escort turbo does at the flywheel!
example of GM over ford.......mk2 cavalier 1600 on a shitty pierburg carb makes nearly same power figures as a 2,0 pinto does on a twin choke webber!
i think your either a ford person or a vauxhall guy......ive had lots of both......have had equal trouble with both......as for reliability...bout the same
