Anyway, whatever it was, they were banging the thing off the rev limiter. I went into the front courtyard to see what it was, to my surprise it was a V8 Patrol parked out front. Sounded waaaay more potent and exotic than the bloated overweight SUV appearance would have you believe.
The workshop who did the engine mods on my SS also does 4WD stuff. One of the shop cars is a V8 patrol with headers, exhaust and Harrop Blower (2650 I think) and it sounds amazing, especially under load. Will be a shame to see it replaced by the TTV6 in the new one.
