"Now, which version of the V-6 did we get over here??"
All I know from my '76 Capri is that it was 2.8 liters and strangely gutless, though wonderfully reliable. I must have put a good 100k on that motor after I got it with 60k on it - only changed the fuel and water pump and drove the heck out of it. It kills me that I had to abandon the car because I was a poor college student without the funds to repair or tow it when a rear bearing failed. I have often wondered at the pedigree of that motor...
