[V8] Does anyone know this car?

[ron_01056 at yahoo.com]

Doesn't the 01A have an Aluminum tail flange or something?

I remember that. I had sold the motor to a fellow lister who then sold it to the original owner of the Quantum.
It's too bad that that car isn't in any better shape then it was when u seen it.

The factory 01A from the 90 20V also had the 4.11 though. And, the gearing 
is a good bit taller, especially in fourth and fifth.

Although, I still prefer the stock motronic, truth be known. I drove that 
034'd Quantum if you recall(the one with your old 4.2) and while it ran good 
and was fun, I'd probably been much more interested in it with the motronec 
on it. Though, it's much more complicated to deal with the brakes with teh 
dizzy in the way.
