Very easy to work on.

It is a Ford Duratech v6 (With two turbos). And a tremec 6 speed. The front and rear clam shells come off.

If/when this motor blows. A Ford ecoboost v6 fits back there very nicely...

That's cool. I've been up close to a Rossion, which I guess is kind of close to this car (it is in drivetrain layout). Neat machine. Have fun!

They are very similar. Noble sold the rights of the M12 to Rossion before Noble started makingthe m600. My Noble feels a little more hardcore because of the exposed roll cage.

Here is a Rossion q1 next to a noble.
