    with everything? where is the source?
    It's with all accessories, but without the flywheel

    Next question, I guess is are the external dimensions, or drawings available?
    I'm sure you know its based on the duratec v6. Maybe you could use a drawing of that engine?

    If you are planning to replace a v8 with a v12 i just found this: Vanquish'd Pony project - 2005 Mustang - Western Motorsports
    EDIT: I'll try to find a drawing later

    The 599 GTB would compete with the upcoming DBS.

    Should Comcast, which is buying NBC, have more motorsports coverage on VERSUS and now NBC? Does North America need a racing tv channel? Find the answer to that exact question on facebook.

    So 30 hours is 30 hours of race/practice time
    Hard to say for sure how long that would be in a mainly road use vehicle.
    Good enough for a couple of years I'd reckon. and then it will be a loss in performance not necessirly a break. The RPA logging advises the owner. I've not reequested the inof on the RPB

    With ze Germans being attracted by the Hoff, and the plan's level of insanity barely comprehensible, even by those who look after people in white coats with long sleeves, I'll have to leave them discussed only on msn for now.

    If it looks like it will come to fruition then there will be a full thread with pics explaining progress.
