Reply to "Wanting a new engine for my 73 Pantera - what to replace it with?!!!"

Thanks to George and no worries, I have spotted your building engines thread so will pass this on to my engine builder. What power should I be looking for? I am keener to have a revvy engine than a tyre-smoking torquey one.

How do I go about finding out what my original engine number is? I had assumed since this was a Cobrajet, it was the wrong one but perhaps it is not.

Thanks for the complements on the car Jim. It really is quite exceptional. It used to be a racer and then underwent conversion and then hibernation. The interios is beautiful cream leather with perforated blue leather inserts, blue carpets trimmed in cream leather. All the arches and engine bay have been smoothed and body coloured, nickel suspension etc. How do I post pictures?

Thanks, Tom
