cranky,
boy this is a interesting thread!!! i became a believer in the sb deal we i was helping my uncle vintage race in so cal bout 7-8 years ago. we had a mid 60's brabham with a warmed over 2liter,i'm guessing 200hp,that terrorized the 550-650hp lolas and other big iron at willow. it helped that he was a good driver. we could eat the big cars alive in the corners and get ahead but they would scream past us on the sraightaways.
it was funny to hear these guys in the pits,*****n bout how the little brabham harassed em. i'm with ya on the reliable,light weight and balance on a road course!!!!!

p.s.-i'm a windsor beliver,the guys at car shows look at me funny when i tell em its a windsor,i just smile and walk away,thinking "these guys have no clue i make 400rwhp and 400lbft of torque"
. thats with the wrong cam and intake combo also!!!!
