The engine in the fastest roadcar ever built was by BMW - the McClaren F1. Extracted from [URL=http://hypertextbook.com/facts/2000/MichaelFeldman.shtml]

"It has been called the "Fastest Car of the 20th Century." In addition, it is. The McLaren F1 is officially the fastest street legal car on record."

"One thing that the McLaren does have is one hell of an engine. Built by BMW, it cranks out 468 kW (627 bhp) at 7400 rpm, has 6.1 liters of displacement, and 48 valves.":bandit:

Wow, don't think I've seen the Lagun Seca II specs before. I can't believe they fit a V12 into the engine bay. :eek:
