    Cam change

    Have you considered fitting restrictors to the intakes? This is how most power restricted formula racing limits power output. You would still need to change the cam though.

    More Global Cooling/Warming/Change hoax.

    'The hottest places on earth will be found near the equator' - No. The author mentions Death Valley and this is nowhere near the equator. If the earth's surface were all land then this would be true but at the equator there is far more sea surface than land leading to high levels of...

    Lightweight motor and transaxle

    I worked with a race team running a Tuscan in the one make series for those cars. They were pretty reliable in race trim , especially after the factory backed the ignition timing off over the course of a couple of seasons.

    Aluminum 302

    On the face of it this (lighter block ) would appear to lower the polar moment of inertia - less twitchy. However, it depends where the car's centre of gravity lies; the GT40 has a rearward weight bias so the C of G will be to the rear of the vehicle physical centre.

    How old am I?

    The Rolls V8 is entirely their design and is a cutting edge design for 1955! It's designed for smoothness and longevity. The low output is a consequence of very low compression, low cam lift/duration and small valves. Despite that some aspects of the engine are impressive; 8 bolts per cylinder...
