Well If you play around with it you could easily get it up to a 2.7.Other wise get a 2.3 chuck in some chevy v8 pistons and youve got yourself a short stroke 2.5. Its a fair bit revier than a normal 2.5..Only one thing modify the crank so it can accept a bolt on the front of the damper. The last thing you want s a damper coming through your bonnet at 6000 r/pm.
The valve train can be changed to accect all SB chevy parts.
The fastest 2.5 was run in the 80's by a man called Mike Palmer. He was a wizard with these things, 10's in the qautermile

Rear diff @ 3.7 vs the 4.5 Huge acceleration!
Can't recall Palmer!!!
Showed Nolan van der Riet how the Opel Rekord lifts its nose from 1st to 2nd. Then only did he believe what the Opel is capable of!!
