with twin cam and twin spark

bit pointless now with the BA

BA doesnt have twin plugs, but that is neither here nor there......Reminds me alot of Sainty's Quad Cam Big Block based on a chev, excellent from an engineering point of view. I think he woul be better selling it as parts rather than a whole car.......25K is a lot for an XD, when for that you could have a blown windsor or cleveland stroker IMHO

Man it sure would hammer in a Corty, had a TC many years ago, and christ that went ok, would love my motor now in that car.......
