I just found the pic of the V8-60. Find out if the engine WAS in the car or was GOING To be placed in the car. I've read where those things are more trouble than they're worth to install and it's still only 60 HP. Also Ora Landis told me that those blocks are very prone to cracking in the Valve valley. Getting 60 HP is no great trick from a 4 banger.
