Sweeet. Although I really don't think this'll put it in line with the GT3 or the F430 stradale.

Andy, I think these threads, the mazda and the aston, they really belong in the Other Fords forum. They're proud members of the family, man!

Ya, that thing will get absolutely destroyed by a regular F430. Aston's gotta do better than a 40hp bump.

Aston should pull an "evo RS" with this, and make it cheaper than the regular V8. And yeah, it should have a hp boost prob twice the one its getting. 80hp might be hard to find on an already-decent 4.3 liter, maybe wilder cams and bored out cylinders would do the trick.

The engine in the V-8 is a bored out 4.2 from a jag so they have definetly got thier work cut out for them. Although we all know the AM is a far better looking car
