What is everyones obsession with monstorous capacites? I'm sure a quad
overhead cam 5.8L would eat the old 7 litre dinosaur. As far as I'm
concerned its time a few of these "traditional" companies get into some
modern technology rather than recycle the old stuff over and over again.
Instead of redesigning the wheel why don't they built a different, better
one.................... so to speak.
My 2 cents anyway.
