Keeping the car narrow and with smaller displacement was the plan from the beginning of this build. I wanted to preserve much of the unique experiences these early cars provide to the driver. I chose to lighten the car meaningfully to maximize the power I thought I could achieve from 2.5 liters. The power to weight ratio is great and the horsepower, and particularly torque, is more than plenty for this street hotrod! I really enjoy driving this car
