Not far off the Tusc really..........I think thats 3.7 to 60, 8.3 to 100 and 11.8 on the 1/4?
Im guessing the MK will only prob do about 140 top end tho whereas the Tusc wont be far off 200.

Yeah would have been nice to use a Busa engine but it was just the wonga really! My mate Rik bought the engine and Busa's were double what we paid as well as being a lot less common!!!

my dad has an indy he bought a sierra as a donor car to steal a lot of the runnig gear etc off, also using the engine from the sierra to get it sva'd so it can have an age related plate rather than a q plate.
