What is the differance between a 420 us motor and a 500 euro
I have a 1986 420 sel with a 1984 500 euro engine in it. I used to have a 1986 420 sel na. I notice a differance in power but I have not gone full out to see what the power out put is. What is the differance in power and performane between the two
