the V8 lettering on my engine is red... means anything special ?
Hi,
the V8 lettering on my 4.2 1997 is red... does that mean anything special ? I've seen it mostly on facelift S8's ? maybe early v8's were all with red lettering... just wondering |
It means that you have a '97 and someone might want to buy that cover from you :)
Some (or all?) 97's came with that. Facelift S8 just had a red border around the "V8 4.2" on the front end of the engine cover...Facelift A8 has silver border. |
So I have a normal 305hp V8 ? :P

The lads across the road paint their brake calipers red, which I presume increases braking power.
Surely, therefore, the red V8 lettering on the engine must be worth at least an extra 5 BHP. :) |
