Hi,had one in my 1600e V6 Savage lookalike,fitted a four barrel Holley carburettor/manifold set up on it,great days the 70s.Complimented the fabricated headers,adjustable shocks,discs brakes with two servos!Lowered suspension,twin exhaust pipes,overdrive,lsd,repositioned battery and fuel tank for better weight distribution.In those days it was classed as a street sleeper.Only downside it must have had a racing cam,tickover had to be 2000 revs otherwise it stalled!I miss the customising era.Then I discovered American V8s.Dream car would be a MK111 Zodiac sleeper with a V8.Sorry slightly off topic.Regards Ry.....
