mind you it was bored out to 2 litres with twin webbers big ventilated
disks all round and the largest bore exhaust I have ever seen on a Morgan.

I knew it would be. Knew that a "pre-80 4/4" would be the fastest car up,
and knew that it would have a few tasteful modifications as do almost ALL of
these highly personalized, well balanced wolves-in-sheep's-clothing.
And I don't understand why so many people continue to choke the life out of
their cars (of any cylinder number) with these little pea-shooter exhausts.
My 4/4 has a 2-7/8" exhaust-line bore all the way through; I never have to
worry about whether the burned stuff is getting out of the way fast
enough......
