Default RE: It happens

Yeah, it happens fellas...
My dad actually worked at Pacifica in the mid-eighties as a modeler (nowadays done by machine!). I don't have too many memories of Pacifica, mainly because I was very young when he was hired on for that project, but I do remember in 1984-85 seeing clay models of what was the 1990 Stealth. Then, it was going to be called the Inca, but I'm fairly certian that the unvieling of the B-2 Bomber in the late eighties had something to do with that car's final name change. If I were to have a stealth, I would most likely yank that motor out and put in something with a little more torque, say like a pushrod V-10!
As nice as having a V10 would be in the Stealth, there is no way it could fit. If you look at the engine compartment, the 3.0L is already a squeeze as it is, believe me I've seen one in person. Your not going to be able to squeeze a V10 in there, let alone any other engine from what I understand.
