Look, do you want me to pick that V8 up tomorrow or not? I can nip down to wigan if you like for the 5.8 V12 if you'd prefer?!?!
in the caddie it is but when used for trucks they fit the right way are a awesome motor. be a good choice for a fender if you could keep diffs in it

Surely if he wants to go american he should just buy a hemi anyway
or an old 7.3 motor from a torinoSurely if he wants to go american he should just buy a hemi anyway
that northstar is way better motor and higher hp. check out merican sites with what they do with them. half the weight and double the power with a little tuning,600hp is a easy job with them
biggest in a torino was a 429 cid

Haha doc . Been looking at those j60 engines. They are very short revving in military spec. Same engine that's in jag mark 2. Easily changed with different cam. Also there are twin turbo versions and they do well supercharged
