Hello, I am waiting for a restoration to be completed on my 69 Santana. I wanted to ask a little about the stock Petrol engine. I am aware the top speed is about 80 KM/hr but how is the torgue?

Ill consider the paint scheme, but, I will keep my truck! Defender is better than Jeep and FJ.

2.25L petrol?
I'm not up to scratch on what Santana's are like and what differences there may be.
I'm aware that the Santana had an option for a 6 cylinder version of the 4cylinder 2.25L petrol

Anyway. If you've got the original 4cyl 2.25 petrol. Here's a spec sheet
Speed wise, no idea with KM/H. We don't really use that over here. Comfortably probably 50-55mph. I hit 62 once but I'm not sure if that's was just the needle bouncing and that was terrifically loud.

Thanks Rat. I appreciate the welcome. I think the Santana is just like the European version but with Parabolic springs. I am upgrading to Power Steering, All around discs and a 5 inch lift.
