My 1990 110 v8 came direct release with "90 bhp" stamped omn the commission plate. I have been told that military engines were restricted, but have been told that the restriction could be in the form of: different cams, different carbs, a restriction in the carb intake or by lower compression depending on who I spoke to. Does anyone know for sure?
I have heard that 3.9efi heads and tubular manifolds fit straight on and boost power. Any other cheap mods people would recommend? (it's got an LPG kit)
It also seems to run quite hot.. is this common?

Any advice is much appreciated
cheers Luke*
