Speed 6 engine spec
Discussion
Hello,
I'm considering a project using the speed 6 engine for a sprint / hillclimb car and would like to pick your brains about the engine.
Do you have any of the following info:
1) Weight & general dimensions (length, height width)?
2) Is this engine dry sumped in the std production car?
3) Can the MBE ECU be interrogated with Easimap software or is it a factory sealed system?
4) What gearboxes can be used on this engine - bellhousing bolt pattern compatible with what? Any info on ratio's?
5) Whats the diff ratio in the std car & is it a Ford sourced unit?
Any help much appreciated
Thanks in advance

The 6 sounds beter in my opinion. Flat plane crank V8's tend to sound more like 4 cylinders to me + I guess the width of it will not be accommodated in a narrow engine bay.
Do you think the 6 is really so unreliable that it will not stand 30 seconds to 2.5 minutes of run time on a hillclimb or sprint? What's been the problems with these engines?
