I think even slower than it should be as I'm still sorting out some problems. The linkages in this car play a crucial role in the performance. I haven't got that sorted out yet so I don't think its delivering enough fuel.

If you want to know your 0 to 60, get out a calendar, it takes forever. Once its there though its golden
I would get a 240 ONLY if it was a 4-speed - for that very reason.
