Combustion chambers reworked, 10:1 compression, 87mm pistons, Mallory distributor and coil, lightened & weight matched rods, nitrided crank, harmonic dampener, deep finned oil sump, finned valve cover, special rocker arm stands, 280 deg cam, oil cooler, spin on oil filter, optional hardtop as well as the soft top & tonneau cover, Lucas driving lights, and more. Looks totally stock from the outside.
