i remember reading somewhere the you guys did grow the slant motor pretty big though didn't you? Awww...I had to check this out....I remember seeing several slant 6s back in the day....this is from wikipedia.... When first introduced here in Australia in 1960 to be fitted to the S series Valiant, it was the most powerful engine on the market. The only close competitor was Mercedes Benz at 3 to 4 times the price tag. The Slanter held its own right up to the release of the Hemi 6... But only up 245cu in...

No probs, to me those older cars are the real cars and they sound like real cars too. Not like these plastic things they make nowdays that sound like an overgrown blowfly. Another good one of the shaker movement when the engine is working hard, a run around Bathurst in a GTHO http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toLPTjE1GZk

another ride i was always fond of was the 93-95 mazda rx-7. those things are pretty damn quick and they were pretty futuristic looking for their time. if i had to describe it i would say it looked like a japanese viper. plus rotary engines sound awesome. sadly they stopped being produced in the US after the 95 model but i believe they were made in japan until 2001. they came out with a special edition the last year they made them called the mazda rx-7 spirit r. beautiful car.
