[DeTomaso] Ford V10

[adin at frontier.net]

This makes more sense, although if going heavier I would want BIGGER.   
Maybe the rumor I heard was concerning the one-off (?) V10 based on a  
4.6?

The developemental is a 7.0?  I look forward to this, the mod motors  
never impressed me much.

thanks Dan,


David
