Some of the Early 323's have the 1.6L SOHC 8-valve engine.

Vaughn Nishimura (THE MX-3 god) has one as his daily driver with the 8-Valve engine.

They were a lot tougher and could handle more power than the 16-valve like what we have.

Hey Flaming Skull-- I posted in another forum that you should come down to meet us-- you are only in Dalton-- so come on down to Atlanta (Marietta) one Thursday night. Also, visit us @ http://www.forumco.com/moca which is our Forum for the MX-3 Owners Club of Atlanta.

Drop by man!
