The seller provided this really helpful info...not...lol

"Thanks for your email, the engine was removed from an accident damaged kit car, unfortunately we haven't had the engine apart so can't give you any further information of the spec apart from what is mentioned on the listing"

Depends if you want cooking or COOKING!

Nigel does a good job but Steve Warrior is generally accepted as THE man to go to for Ford V8s. Mathwell Engineering also do them for a number of the quick GT40s.
