The sensor resolution from a distributor for both triggers isn't the best but it works.
7L/100km would be nice but a cam and 8.4:1 compression ratio isn't a recipe for using fuel efficiently 
I'm tempted to pick up an L67 Caprice as well to have some fun with. |
Temptation sounds fun. I'm not a mechanic, but you could go more outrageous on the supercharger I am sure. Someone on one of the Shannons comments mentioned putting in the 3.2 Alfa V6, hmmm, apparently that one sounds great.
VT Calais - standard with L67? I've seen quite a few for sale with just ecotec
VX Calais - standard with L67?
VXII Calais was standard with L67, ecotec as delete option. Also L67 became optional on Acclaim and executive... does that mean I can find a supercharged Acclaim wagon somewhere?
VY Calais, standard with L67, I think.
