4.7 Litre and 550 HP !
Discussion
But it's a Speed 6 engine!
There's an article in Sprint magazine this month, reporting that Al Melling Sports Cars are offering rebuilds on the Straight 6's, with 2 options. A 4.5 and 4.7, giving 517Hp, and 550Hp respectively.
The cost? £7500.00 for the 4.5 and £8500 for the 4.7. and accompanied by 2 year parts and labour warranty.
Hmmmmm, interesting
