I saw a xc falcon with a 6 cyl motor. It was like a footy game at anz stadium with 3 people in the crowd. Needs a boss 5.4 to fill up the acreage of space.

For standard, as I put my flame suit on,
I love the LS1 engine bays! Maybe because it was my 1st V8. But Ive got a massive soft spot for them!

great idea for a thread hulk, you retain the title "master thread starter"
 my vote goes to the boss 290/302/315 engine bay. just a mother of a beast of an engine for a modern era car, especially in the ford dark blue colour, may look a bit plastic but theres actually not much plastic really..........

Jaguar V12. Either the post 1992 update model with all the wires tidied up or the earlier E-Type V-12...
No Plastic Covers in those engine bays! (unless you count wiring insulation).
