fascinat ion with what has basically evolved into a Rover engine is 
dumbfounding. The Brits have been fooling w/them for years, but TR-8s and
the like still can't touch small-block Ford power
.Pardon me for yawning.

You're not excused. 

I guess a motor with about 75 to 90 cubic inches more of displacemet WOULD
make more power.  Did you expect otherwise ?? As I said before it's possible
to expand a 215 to about 305 cubic inches using essentially stock parts.
I'm sure THAT combination would equal the smallblock Ford power output.  And
it would do it while contributing 140 to 150 lbs. less wieght to the vehicle.

Nothing  "yawnable" about that !
