A really tough call here. My 090 with no governor is mighty powerfull. But my 2 brothers Mac 125s are just as strong. Durability for the long haul I'd pick the 090.
Sorry about the sideways view.
Well, the distributor is in the front like the ford and buick the way the pipes are angled on the exaust looks like sb ford and the paint is ford blue I think not red like buick. But I can't find good enough picture to be sure Brad. Does anyone know for sure what it is?
I quess it must have been a transplant,this was 1975. The owner had a car magazine with a write up of the little V-8 in it , maybe thats where he got the idea from. I also found this conversion on the web lately,quess this was a common thing to do with the little Opel.
Whats that?And my vote for the baddasstest factory saw of all time is,,,,Solo 690.

This is what one looks like in the car.
I think that engine design was sold to British Leyland, and was in a production Triumph Stag around 1970.
