Ahhh, he thinks the FI in the "3.1multiportFI" stands for formula 1. cute.

He probably doesn't realize that F1 engines are uber expensive, superlight, mega high revving, and built to a tolerance that the engine literally seizes when the car is "cold." (<----thank you top gear UK, great show)

hold on... 'furmula 1'?

looks a mess, so maybe there is/was rats/mice... explains the 'fur-mula'... nothing can explain the color or the rest of the car or idea for that matter

That yellow car has a ton of potential, but the price is way off.

No, he just has the intake mounted 180 degrees the other way. You can turn those uppers if I recall correctly. Look carefully at the hose routes, you can see they are correct. The near side of the engine is the side normally against the firewall. And the belt is on the correct side. So the upper intake is just flipped. No biggie.

What I want to know, is what the hell is it mounted in???
