[V8] Dizzy Seals

[Tony and Lillie]

There is a very significant difference, though. The S-cars had a 
distributorless ignition from the factory. The V8's use distributors. So, 
you would have to completely re-engineer the spark system on a V8. And, have 
an ECU of some sort to fire the coils as well.
