How an alloy headed 220 motor sat around for over three months and then finally found its way into an XR8 is beyond me, especially since the T2's had been getting cast iron headed engines for that whole time.
Possibly a T1 TS50 warranty engine that had been misplaced in the production line?

While the heads may have been the "feature" difference, wouldn't tune,
MAF callibration, TB etc all be different too (maybe not TB)?
