What is the likely weight difference between the V12 Aston unit and, say, a Judd. Being of GT origins (block and heads have to be stock I believe), is it likely to be a tall unit compared to others? I presume they have done their homework with regard to installation--particularly with a coupe shape where the air flow is very important--but this seems to be more important than Lola's wind tunnel work as the engine is likely to be taller and longer.

I look forward to hearing the engine wail at, what I believe to be, much higher revs than we have heard in the GT car. It will bring back memories of the glorious sound of the Jag V12 in unrestricted form in the Group C days.
