WOW close to double the 148HP of the last 3000's (almost x3 that of my How much HP were the works cars putting out? Bob (and interested parties) The initial test run of the DMD engine produced the fo
And how much torque (for getting off the line) and also, how much torque did the 4.2 Jag E-type have? That was always my favorite when it came to pulling away from a stoplight -- what a torque monste

Hi Alan, I wouldn't presume to speak for Larry - only my personal experience. My first encounter with a Healey was to put a well built Chevy small block into a three year old BN2. I adapted the BN2 t
