Hey your spelling's not too bad, you did make sense.

Hallo is hello or try using G'day mate :D

In South Africa they used MK3 Cortinas with V8's fitted in them as presedential cars. Not many though.

In Australia we had 1600 OHC 4 cylinder, 2000 OHC 4 cyl, 3300 straight six cyl and 4100 straight six.

The 4100 straight six is known as a 250 due to being a 250 cubic inch motor.
Plenty of torque and about 150 horsepower in the high compression version.

The 4100/250 is still being used in the current Falcon over here and the turbo versions make over 300KW which is about 420 horsepower.

Cheers Steve
