On the block
The Chevrolet Corvette-sourced 5359cc (327 cubic inch) smallblock V8 offered outputs of 272kw and 510Nm (in Strada spec), via a four-speed manual gearbox. Corsa racers swapped a single Holley for four Webers and gained 30kw. Rearward location is evident in the long plumbing to reach the radiator; the distributor is reached via the dashboard.
