That "Ford" is a Cosworth HB. FWIW lots of teams other than Benetton used the HB.

In all honesty you could do it for about $30k. Not with the HB but with something just as badass: a Hartley H1V8. It would sound pretty much the same except the mustang exhaust would be a little longer. Originally Posted by 71DubBugBug

Yep! That's the engine. basically two Hayabusa motors put together in a tiny V8. It is the closest thing you can get to an F1 engine for a street car. It's the same idea as the engine in this Radical SR8 Originally Posted by .:Ryan
