I never knew the Dino V6 was so symmetrically placed... the engine is very nearly centered in the car, and the rear differential is divorced from the bell housing, so that the rear axle shafts are symmetrical, or at least very close. That minimizes torque differential between two axle shafts with different torsional resistance.

The exhaust balancing bleeds are also interesting... smaller bridge pipes from one primary tube to the next adjacent one, to help scavenge through the exhaust system.

I STILL want to see a Stratos with the roof over the cabin removed, like a speedster.

And I still want to find out if a Stratos replica body will fit on a Factory Five 818 chassis, with a turbo subaru mid-engined drivetrain.
