Doesnt sound too bad...
Utilising that sort of tech with those parts will make it cheaper for Ford/FPV too, leaving more dollars for other areas. As long as the QC is up to scratch wherever it's made |

Very very interesting, yes drop this V10 rubbish and give us a nice bigger displacement 6-7ltr V8, with a shit load of low down grunt.

Be interesting to see what FPV could do if they got their hands on a couple. I can only imagine the amount of fun the engineers could have!

This is certainly a step in the right direction. Hopefully FOA have this engine too.
