Yes, a small-block Ford, which, if I recall correctly, occupied the engine bay of your Sunbeam Tiger in 221 and 260cid displacements during the sixties, and currently offered in 302cid (5.0 liter) for retro- and kit/reproduction use.

I have one of those.

It's a guy thing; likely beyond you. :P

Nah-I used to build them, that's all.

I do have one of them, though.

Makes about 450 HP.

Sport aside, I'm not too good with traditional guy things - I like to think I'm one of those progressive new age men types.

However, I'm just pish at stuff that doesn't interest me. I don't think it's important how a shelf is put up, it's just up. Also, my AA membership has got me out of many a flat tyre situation over the years :smilie4:

Th AA are good at getting people out of situations like this one. There a site worker at my place of work who's spent mega amounts of money on his triumph spitfire :unsure:

It had a triumph T4 engine in it with an electric fuel injection sytem on to keep up with the petrol usage. He decides he wants to put some fancy carbs on the car so he does, but when he try's to get the car going it wont start. He rings up the AA chaps and tells them it just wouldn't start when he came to it in the morning.

The nice AA man took a quick look at it and told him to get in it while he pushed him down the hill to bump start it, cause all he had done was flooded the engine so it wouldn't start :lol:

/edit guy stuff.

It's actually a V Poor rod. Cars with electronic fuel injection don't have carburators.

Only a n00b would fall for that one.

Such a lack leads you to mistakes of the chrome waste bin variety.

Having hobbies thus allows you solitary activities to tide you past those days when no one can abide you on a bar-stool.

Strictly a matter of self-sufficiency.

Not the remotest clue what that means, but jings it makes me feel quite masculine just reading it.
