Must admit I was never enthralled by the chrome alloys. They never stayed flake free for long. I have the same wheels on mine Ian but mine are the usual alloy look. Got them from a nice guy in Germany

That does not sound like the car I broke?

Yes mine was a 3.7 but done by Power Engineering not Cosworth, car was from Ireland & 380 BHP :o, well mine only made 280 BHP.
That engine must have been turbo charged or something to make that?

Cosworth did do some work on a 4.0 L 24V Cosworth engine so could be something todo with that?

Interesting.
