Is that motor maybe originally intended for an Exploder? If so, then it has
the GT40P heads, which don't flow anywhere near a GT40 "turbo swirl" or
GT40X. The cam would also be very mild. Still, a great deal for those needing
a motor and for 99% of the applications out there, the low end response would
be much more valuable than an extra 75 hp above 5000.
