Question about engine selection

["Hank Eskin" <heskin@xxxx>]

I've had a nagging question about the PRV engine selection... I know John
wanted a European engine, but weren't there any alternatives that produced
more than 130 HP at the time? Not that I'm at all complaining about it, but
it just seems that in the late 70's there would have been higher output
engines available from Europe that just had alot more umph to them.
