Yes, I know it's not V8, but what if it was V12? We've read about the Jag, but Buick built a "Freight Train", V12. It also had a "little", more power. Word on the street, actually on the strip, is an IRL. team is trying to sell (2), all alum. Turboed/Intercooled, put-puts @ 1,700hp/ea. Let's see here, take-out Jag V12 and....................Jus' let me know first so I can buy some "term" insurance on you." Power to the people", roverman.

Oh Yesss.... but least it's Hiper-porn. This only adds, hi-octane to fuel to, "it's never too late to exasserbate", over a Rover W16. May we all stop before we go blind. roverman.

Kevin, Nothing to do with current "W" engine, actually engineered by VW.? Anyone have pictures of this "Rover" W16? Speaking of Rover's, anyone got TA heads or "word" yet? roverman.
