Looking at this another way I've added 34hp at 6,500rpm, an increase of 23% over stock, I've also added 25 lbs/ft of torque from 5,250rpm to 6,500rpm, an increase of 20%.

And now we know Monty makes 173hp, assuming he weighs 877 kg..... that's 197 bhp per tonn!

So the exact same power to weight ratio as a 260hp 3.6 litre Boxster S, a car Porsche said did 0-60 in 5.5 seconds.

To my mind that's quite rapid for something that looks like it was born in the 1930's toff

Monty not only gives great pleasure to his driver, but also seems to bring joy to everyone who encounters him out in the wild. Filling up with Shell V-Power in Farnborough before visiting Surrey Rolling Road a random but rather attractive young woman approached me with a seductive smile, and simply said...

"Your car is absolutely beautiful" love
