Hello Warren, Ian...and did I see Bill with his famed taglines?
< Loved that one you posted...a tagline will be with you shortly >
How much muscle? I got Maria's bike all up and running, and
now I lack some tools etc to fix my bike which needs a bit
more TLC ...then I will use , as you put it my engine, all
muscle < or something to that effect> and drive it with my
own enclosed SMverxxxxxxx . ;->)

Yes. The original production and auto show version was a V8
and while not produced by Chysler and farmed out it still
features what I should of corrected to, which was a V10.
512 cu inches < 8.4L > and Aluminum engine.
Leo, my neighbour who is into this, mentioned when I called him
the V12 was a production of someone , just as the Oldsmobile
Super Rocket 455 in a VW "bug" that used to be at the local
burger joint.
Things have certainly changed for me, since 1970s to 1980s,
as the 460cu inch went into a boat, and I have driven
4 cylinder cars and well the van is a V6....oooh wow.
