engin...
Hello,
this Challenger engine is quite evidently a 'LA' engine, thus more modern
than the 'A' Poly I have on my 409 (or I would to say off my 409, as it lays
dismantled in several hundreds of parts scattered between Bologna, Imola,
Faenza and....the broken parts shelf of my garage). I think the external
dimension, engine supports, gearbox attachment etc, might be exactly the
same, though, so mny idea would be to purchase it (if Greg can arrange the
shipment to Europe of this lump) and have it tuned a bit a spare engine for
my 409.
It's all Jim's fault if I am trying to do this: his wonderful tales of
night racing along US Highways chasing bad guys on his black and whites made
me think that a hot American V8 would be good to have in my garage....well
concealed under the dignified hood of a Bristol, of course!
Ciao
Stefano
