Its got full service history, and was serviced last in october, so that should all be fine, its also got magnacore leads, as when i got it one of the leads was shorting on the bulkhead, and as said earlier its got a full rpi exhaust and straight pipes. Would it be worth putting it on a rolling road session, can anything be tweaked/adjusted like fuel pressure/ratios etc. on these engines while on there? Thanks, Sam

it still weighs the same as a block of flats.....google "power to weight ratio"

for an explanation.

I know what power to weight ratio is and understand it will never be fast, but nothing wrong with a bit of extra power or torque, Sam

If you want more power get a american v8. (cast iron block) and stronger.

Go get yourself a 4.7 litre Porsche engine from a 928s and stick that in if you want to play.
