its an interesting question about demand, but when you think about it FPV sell about 1500 V8's a year and Ford sell about 5-10K XR8's so there could be some delay's.

Well FPV might be able to secure some funding their way, maybe even Prodrive if it means lighter, stronger (although probably more expensive) engine blocks

The guys that make the engines though get about 600hp out of their DOHC supercharged 4.6's anyway so they know how to make a good engine

They found a much better replacement that is now legendary in Holden History.

In the end it's only a name that they could have used today.

My grandfather and father had them, I seen my fathers from pics, I was told he loved it.
But for me i like the more modern shapes as years went on.
Even though one of my all time fav cars is the VH SL/E Blue/Silver two tone cars.
