Modern technology, lots of power with good economy is just what I was looking for hence my use of the BMW 4.4 litre V8. A bit of work on the exhaust manifolds ( headers) to free up the flow and youve got over 320bhp with 30 mpg on a run.
With petrol/gas at over $5 per gallon we have to watch our petrol consumption over here. If your fuel prices had been like ours over the last 30 years all your manufacturers would have been using using aluminium engine and multiple overhead cam technology many years ago.
