I thought they came with a 351 Clevo!

Either way I would have stuck with the Ford motor.

could be that bmw's engines are engineered a tiny bit better, or that he had a beat up bmw with perfectly fine engine and the pantera was blown, or he had a new 351 and just wasted $$

There's no doubt that the BMW motor would be engineered better. But the Clevos in the Pantera aren't the poverty pack regular Cleveland. And in a car like that (I love them!) I would have thought it best to keep its original configuration. But as is often said- each to their own.

Well done. You really know what you're talking about there:loser1: . As they say "Ignorance is bliss"

Its the fact that someone has modified a rare car and most likely decreased its value in doing so.
