Uh, some of us are already long metrified, Hans, we just don't talk metric
because it confuses the Americans...
And with 160 to 185 ft.lbs. of torque (I didn't think they'd be ready for
Newton-metres) those engines out pull just about any MG.
Too bad they make swaps so difficult - if the computer gets disconnected
from the gauge package, it won't allow the engine to run. An antitheft thing,
but one needs a do-around for doing swaps using that engine.

While passing these road, I overlapped 3 UK reg MGRV8's - a great view!
Talking about the economy of this comfy car:
During the 2,500 miles run in the holidays the car used an average 5.2
litres per 100 kilometres. Sorry guys, you have to xlate to metrics now.
