that is a 8V-71 so puts out about the same as a regular 6-71. Rotors are smaller diameter on the V series as they also had a turbo! It will displace about 410 cu in per rev, so about 10-12 lbs of boost at 1-1, all else being equal will make about 70% more power than N/A on same motor.

The car has had a respray but is still waiting to be taken to Sleathys for a general once over and RR session.

Thankfully it seemed to survive some drunken 'testing' which is more than can be said for what was a fairly new pair of MTs :shock:
