Umm i know this is going to sound completely stupid but if you look closely at the photo. you can see the reflection of the engine in the cars paint job. As for the suspension it is alot lower theres a 2 inch gap and normally on the diablo there is a 5 inch gap from wheel to fender. As alot of you stated the engine is mounted backwards and you are correct because the car was going to be used in the next spykids movie and have CGI used for the flames but they wanted the fan blades to turn to add the so call realism effect but unfortunately there wont be another spykids movie due to lack of funding. If you get a subscription to Entertainment magazine there is an article there with a pic of that exact diablo..if im not mistaken its back in the December issue of 2003. I will look for it and hopefully the wife hasnt thrown it out of the mans library "yes in talking about the head.." and post it for you if its ok with RCU..
