Close.. The engine was used in that, but was originally developed for motorsport by a British engineering company, and has been used in many cars over many years.
I refrain from giving away the other hint for now, it'll make it too easy! later Russ

It's the Ford-Cosworth V8, isn't it?

It sure is! A Cosworth-DFV V8, engineered by the same company, of course, that worked on the 190E 2.3/2.5 - 16.
A tasty lump isn't it? It's not even very big. Maybe I can fit one into the front of my 190E... 450 bhp would make me very happy later Russ
