Hi All,
Got a bit of a history question, I was reading the book "Heart of the Lion" the other day and was reading about the original introduction of the Commodore. As we know they stuck with essentially the same engine as the Kingswood had but there was mention of an Opel Senator engine that was meant to be much more advanced, I think it was fuel injected. Does anyone know if this engine was considered for the original Commodore, and if it was, why it wasn't chosen.
