And as for the 5cylinder thats a volvo engine mate
Ford didnt 'have' cosworth, ford have never owned cosworth whilst producing a cosworth badged/engined car
The fact they didnt carry on was purely down to emmissions regs
The Mitsi engines are designed from the ground up with emmissions in mind mate, not from a 70's van block in case you didnt notice?
Ford own volvo mate, hence its a ford engine mate
same as all the VAG engines are used across brands mate
Nobody mentioned putting a zetec against a yb mate......zetec are old hat now as well
Carry on being stuck in the past...cosworth is as amazing engine, but its not the future, which is what this thread is about
