Eurasian Engines - Proposal?

[Ron Earp]

"Others say" that these relationships should be much looser, even to the point of very loose co-ventures (e.g., Saab engines can be installed in a Pontiac). Unfortunately, this last issue is very difficult to determine, as if one stays too tight then some opportunities are lost; on the other hand, if one gets too loose then using the "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" logic you could pretty much install anything into anything.

Why worry about it at all? An engine is an engine. Pick an engine, put it in a chassis.

What "Super Touring" principle, or SCCA core value, are we upholding by only allowing engine swaps within the same company?

Why is Honda <-> Acura swap okay, but a GM <-> Ford swap not okay?
