Sorry its not a YB though!

Interesting picture though. F1 Turbo engine. 1.5Litre V6. Cool man!



For sale for 15k if anyones interested. Martin would be able to make it fit I'm sure and Stu would probably be able to get it through emissions and able to run at Lambda 1 on the Motorway

Need to try and fit it in a fiesta..only problem is I would need to sit on the roof so that the engine would fit in the car - wouldnt do my aerodynamics any good either.

I remember a programme on channel 4 years ago following the development of this engine for the Hart F1 team before Ford swapped over to Benetton

They actually started first with a 4 pot ( possibly even an early YBB engine as this was around the same time)
but it could not go over 12000 revs without exploding so they went with this engine instead.

There used to be a Benetton with one of these engines fitted, in the Sports Cafe in Cardiff when it was down the bay before it closed, it may turn up again when they finish the new one in the city centre

i wish i was old so i couldnt remember these programs
