This may be heresy, but having owned British trash, I think a p-car engine is mostly boring to look at, especially a stock one from the 80's you really can't see much. An older one, or when with all the crap on top of the engine is missing and a nice set of Webers, that is a different story. Why do some people polish/anodize their fans? Its about the only thing you can really see.
