What's of interest as far as the Peugeot thread is that Baretzky mentioned that the Audi/VW F3 engine was stress mounted. The AER P07 and MZR-R are semi-stressed mounted in a tube-frame extention that bolts to the carbon tub. He also suggests that the F1 1.6T four bangers will/should be capable of stress mounting. Peugeot would want to got the stress mounted route, but that would mean an engine built from scratch or a siginifanctly modified block and head for a stock block engine, like the P07 and the MZR-R.
However, it seems that Peugeot will have to figure that out for themselves, as Baretzky didn't offer any details on how the VW F3 engine was modified to be stress mounted.
