Over on fordcontour.org, there's a thread started by a guy who's been in the car biz for years, and he said that the closest thing a Duratec reminded him of was the Ferrari Dino V6 engine from the 1960s. He and TH were speculating about what a Duratec would sound like with a Weber carb setup.
That would be fuuuuun. I wish more performance cars used this engine.
