Default Cost Effective 2.5l "bristol" Engine

Geoff,
I am fully aware of what you outlined - I only offered a technical
alternative to acheive a larger bore "Bristol" engine for those who
expressed an interest. I am not arguing with you re relative costs of
staying original vs the "big block" idea - I agree with you that staying
original is cheaper -see my previous post. Re cutting x member etc, let's
not forget that the 405's got the "gas axe" treatment from the factory to
allow the installation of the laycock overdrive.

Brett
