Bristol Fighter Engines and Transmissions

The Bristol Fighter engine follows an old-school recipe: a very large 8.0-litre petrol unit, as in the 8.0 AT Coupe, which supplies effortless pull at low revs instead of demanding constant gearchanges. The automatic transmission suits that relaxed character, and rear-wheel drive keeps the drivetrain simple and balanced.
