So would that just be a version of the ubiquitous Rover (Buick derived) alloy V8?

Location: Sydney - strangely, I am glad of the sight of hills!!
anyone else notice that the engine still has the original cast iron exhaust manifolds fitted and the original inlet manifold including carby? and that the turbos have a pair of suck through SUs fitted to them?

and like Clark Kent and Superman, none of the photos show the two in the same picture?

that motor NEVER had those turbos fitted to it. i reckon hes just fishing for whatever he can get
