FYI Jensen used Chrysler big blocks in at least the Interceptor. Of course it needed detuned when the 70s rolled around. Nothing like a 400ci engine producing 120 hp.
Another interesting note is that Jensen was the first company to put anti lock brakes on a car (the interceptor). They came straight from an aircraft parts manufacturer for carrier planes.
Jensen however, is not a forgotten company. A properly restored Interceptor I commands prices well north of $50k and I know as of 5 years ago you could still buy one new from a revived Jensen co,
