Small block Ford, hmmmm, wonder if the lighter SOHC 4.6 works? I'm not a fan of 4 cyl. engines, don't own one now, have only owned two.

I think I may eventually go turbo. V-8's and superchargers will probably be much harder on transmissions and rear ends than turbos.

But none of those options would sound as good as that tiny little V-16.
I agree, the hair on the back of my neck stood up.
