Apologies for not getting back about this -
The extra power was a luxury, but frankly it towed fine with the stock 67hp 3 cylinder. The upsized front brakes were probably more of a factor. The rear end of the car got lighter however, making it easier for the tail to wag the dog, but that's easily solved by putting some of the load into the hatch.
