it did not look either crude or cheap to me.

although the egine looked a lot like a ford truck engine, but after all that is the attraction of the ford gts isnt it? a dead simple engine?

i looked at a real ford gt mark IV last year at the elkart lake vintage races. it had a nascar big block side oiling 427 with two large four barrell carbs on it. it was anvil tough and powerful enuff!
