Just to add - this engine now goes all the way out to 5.2 litres, and IMHO the
more the better.  I've sometimes regretted having a smaller one, but I've
never regretted having a bigger one :-)  This motor will go to around 350
horses with Webers or injection (no blower).

>>And the best version of the engine is the later 3.9 litre fuel-injected
version. I don't know if you have them over there, but the 3.9 (aka 4 >>litre)
engine is a firm favourite over here
