We tried the fast thing too in my mate's Standard Vanguard that he'd shoe-horned a 308 Holden motor into. The only problem was it still had the 'Town and country' tyres on the back.
The handling for the stock car was shit to start with, putting all that weight in the front and , with the extra HP meant the burn-outs were spectacular but the handling went from shit to pretty much unmanageable.
And the brakes were shit too, drums all round.
Car ended up sideways into a lamppost and the rest is history ..
Speaking of putting V8's into things...

I helped carry that bike into his lounge. Its lovely bit of kit and easy to work on. Who knows what its worth.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
26k ......... I'd find myself looking in the window at new bikes.
Still - it's collectors money so has nothing to do with riding it.
I'd love to ride it but there's really no class to race it in, plus 26k is a lot of rare motorcycle to chuck down the track.
Value is in its spares I think, 26k n you could sell lots of the spare bits if you only wanted to put it in your lounge
