Default RE: Help identify this engine (and other questions)

Subarubrat, you're opening Pandora's box here but here we go: I wasn't lamenting but disappointing in the relative lack of variety these days. Before if you wanted an off the shelf engine, you got one, if you wanted to machine one from plans you could. These days not so many plans out there but lots of off the shelf stuff. Nothing wrong with 3 dimensional fuel maps BUT when I go buy a new Jaguar I want a Jaguar not a thinly disguised Ford platform......when I go to get a Rolls I want a Rolls and not a thinly disguised BMW or VW or whatever the case may be in that particular example. See where I'm going?......Just like with wine and women, nothing wrong with variety. It'd be pretty boring in the world was full of brunettes with C cups.
