it was meant to have a flat four engine but that got cancelled in favour of an existing inline design
that and torsion bar front suspension gives allot of room to work on the alternator and oil filter

being able to remove the rocker cover without disturbing the carburettor or distributor has its uses
such as checking for oil flow and rocker/point gap

most parts can be removed with the engine and gear box in place
if needed the transmission comes out the bottom and the engine can be lifted out the front and up by removing the grill

Not inferior I just don't prefer it. I don't really like rwd that much either. Awd master race! Like I said there is less power loss. That is an advantage over awd and rwd except some mid engine applications. You shouldn't post on an auto fourm if you are too retarded to understand basic mechanical design concepts.

If you are trying to make a Fucking fast car don't start with FWD. Holy shit. Like I said at the beginning it has advantages putting a lot of power down is definitely not one of them.

>>15433172
"I'm angry because my point is invalid". My opening point was it has less power loss. That means less weight because you can use a smaller engine to get the same amount of power to the wheels which means cheaper production cost. It also handles better in adverse weather conditions. All that put together means it makes a good commuter vehicle. Goal posts are in the same place you are just too stupid to see that.

Start with suspension. They get arthritis fast. Once you have that locked in look at stiffening the chassis. Then do your downpipe and exhaust. Be sure to delete the baffle. It can cause other problems down the line.

You could always pipe the noise through your speaker system and make it as loud as you want.

Some car audio fans like bigger alternators and have special housings to cool them better.

With more alternators under your hood, you can power more gear. How loud can your turbo and exhaust get?

Instead of piping the droning noise thru a catback, just turn up the volume control on your amplifiers. If you have enough speakers, you can make a really loud exhaust noise. Brraaap Brapppp BrrrrraaaAp

The more alternators you have the better.

You can never have too many alternators? If you got a lot of speakers to power, then more is not enough.

Isn't the record six alternators? Here's an example of four alternators under the hood of your average daily car.
