Certainly is an interesting powertrain option for the prototype cars, but are these GT1 engine a practical option? Reliability is probably less of an concern, but packagine is vastly different, as well as size, weight and rigidity(remember now in Prototype they are carrying the load for the rear suspension from the gearbox).....plus it still won't be competitive with diesel...
