On the  director's commentary on Part 3, they said they learned their 
lesson from Part I and replaced all the engines for the sequels with 
Porsche engines (type unspecified).  

I'm not sure what lesson they learned in Part I but I guess they wanted 
some performance that just couldn't be accomplished with audio 
dubbing.  In particular, I believe they were discussing the scene when 
Marty pops into the middle of the Indians in 1885 and spends a few 
harried moments driving in reverse.  After that, the engine wasn't 
used. But since both II and III were shot back-to-back, presumably the 
Part II cars were also modified.
