You do in M.K if it's collected.

I'd drive it there and probably take the wheels off. (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/up.gif)

As an interesting bit of trivia . . . . Cadillac designed the 500ci block to potentially be stroked and bored up to a 600ci !!!

That's over 9.3 Litres displacement !!! (http://www.mkb.cc/forum/smileys/shame.gif)

And they also have a very sturdy rear axle.

We used them in the sprint cars, and were easily holding up under 360ci racing in 3rd gear.

yup, the riva is.... and they have an INCREDIBLY strong diff too....



a mate of mine from way back (now living in france) put a rover V8 in one, then cut the roof off....

engine bay is suprisingly short though, Carl ended up putting the radiator in the boot, and having some interesting ducting and vents!
