Jacobs was not out to make 500hp time attack 10 second car. He wanted a solid reliable car that would offer great balance, power and response on the track or street. His 17 y/o high mileage 205 and 5 speed were not going to get him there, so insert a later model 207, twinscoll, 6 speed, R180, LINK ECU and it is one of the best GC8's in Perth.
At the end of the day that 250 / 355 is no indication of how that car will drive. It will piss on things with more claimed power... no doubt even my car.
