I think your choice not to put a grey in it may be wise Steve!
Only advantage of a grey change would be fuel economy :lol:
Nice Power to weight ratio. That thing would get up and boogie I'm sure

Nice car...


Used to own a Centura, though it was only a six. Still hauled though. Had no trouble blowing off a lot of V8's


Surprised this one is so light, coz one thing that stopped me putting a V8 in mine was that it weighed almost 1300kg with the six

hey cal thanx. not sure why ur one was so heavy. not much metal came out of the rear end
the convo pro's are light im guessing a 440cu has to be at least 40kg heavier than a 265
