@TheForza1000 Eric Broadley's Lola GT wasn't a successful race car when Ford bought the design - but the Lola had been designed around the Ford small-block V8 engine, which made it a natural starting point for the GT-40 program. Little remained of the Lola design except the general body shape by the time the GT-40 competed. It was the first car to have its chassis and suspension designed by computer (back at Ford's Dearborn HQ), under the guidance of Klaus Arning. Credit where due, eh?
@alexander1485 even a diehard Chevy boy would appreciate this car. i suspect it's a Ferrari owner that's still upset that ford whooped their ass all through the 60s at Le Mans :D
Ford had "cast headers" on the 352 and 390 "HP" engines, from the early 60's. They are considered good performance wise, and nothing beats the sound from them. They are crazy rare now days, most have been snatched up by people doing resto's or big money hot rods.
To me the end cans represent a pair of eyes bulging cartoonishly out of their sockets while the various pipes represent a brain. The engine is representative of a heart. So in essence the heart is connected to the brain telling me I want this car while my eyes are practically falling out of my head just looking at that engine
@thing503 Since when does it matter what material or construction method was used? They are manifolds (two of) on account that they take many inputs. "Manifold: A pipe or chamber having multiple apertures for making connections." "Header" can be found to mean the exact same thing. Which word you use is down to habit alone, and neither is incorrect in this case.
@identiticrisis But popular terminology would name cast exhaust pipes, manifolds and mandrel bent tubing, headers. I understand where you are coming from, but calling them exhaust manifolds would be calling them the wrong thing to most people.
@thing503 Oh I know about the popular usage, that's what I meant by "habit" ;)
The problem is, these "habits" differ depending on where you live...
In any case, is "tubular manifold" really that strange to say? What about "cast headers"?
I'm guessing there must be some kind of stigma with the word "manifold" where you're from? Unless the use of "header" is inherited from some sort of water plumbing arrangement, which are usually tubular.
@identiticrisis In the U.S. when it comes to cars, generally any exhaust scavenging that is cast metal would be called an exhaust manifold. There are actually cast headers as well but it's just not as common. Mot of the time here, when you're referring to headers you're talking about bent tubing.
@thing503 So "Manifold" is stock, boring road-spec, and "Header" is performance oriented? I can see how those conversations would go down: "Nah, man, I've got headers, not manifolds..." :P That sounds comical to me, but to each their own. I guess these idiosyncrasies show character. :)
@Cash2112 They aren't fart cans lol. This isn't a rice burner. This isn't a race car so I'm guessing the driver doesn't want to have to put up witht the ridiculous drone that would come with racing exhaust.
If it takes me 30 Years I'm saving up for a GT40 Continuation. Probably a Mk1 with the 289ci or 302ci. Hell yes. Hopefully it wont take 30 years though. Maybe 10 would be nice.
god, these engines are all amazing. Simply the most unique sound out of a v8 I've heard, and by far the best. And I'm a HUGE corvette fan, so that says a lot.
The GT40 is by far my favorite 60's era car. Bar none. I would love seeing one of these on the freeway again, only saw one in my life.

Such a sweet sound, 180 degree exhaust wereby every other cylinder from each bank feeds a common collector (2). Too bad you need so much room to do - this perfect for a mid engine car though. This nearly turns the Detroit 90 degree V baritone into a Italian tenor. Sounds best accelerating under load...
some kid down the street thinkss his daddy's BMW M6 can beat my GT, funniest joke i have ever heard, his dads car is a complete stock and i bought mine off a guy who had the car decked to 800 hp
yes I know. I figured it was a trans cooler or something of the sort. I posted my comment being sarcastic to a person who thought it was a tiny radiator. appearantley sarcasim doesnt translate the way you want it in text.
wot have u been smokin...the gt engine has a fairly large blower sitin on top of it...this one dont lol. and gt40 engines to look like that lol, depends on intake etc.
maybe it wos a bad question, maybe ur jus plain stupid. theres no visual similarity atall. dnt say its a ford gt engine wen u clearly aint seen one. u can see theres no supercharger sittin on top of this engine.
pretty clear...why wud u comment on sumfing wen ur rong. and its a big propasition to make sayin everyone is rong about it bein a gt40 engine...when its not. maybe u shud do research b4 sayin it...just an idea.
I've already been corrected on it. I didn't believe it was the GT40 at first mainly for the engine and the down pointing exaust pipes, which I easily associate with the Ford GT.

It has no radiator, you connect the cooling system directly to your bloodstream. The cooler you are, the better the engine runs.
