A friend of mine - who is a junior engineer with Ford in Detroit - was visiting us this weekend and got really excited about my new S2000. He said that some guys in his group have a couple of them taken all apart in one of their R&D labs trying to figure out how it's HP/liter is so high, how it maintains California emissions, etc. He said Honda made it almost impossible ro reverse engineer; from a design perspective, the F20C is apparently the holy grail of engines to those Ford boys.

I figured the board would get a kick out of this.

Regards,

The next Mustang doesn't just need 120 hp/liter, it needs an entirely new CHASSIS
