Is this the Ford industrial V4 as used in the SAAB series? 1 Quote Link to comment
q-tip Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 Is this the Ford industrial V4 as used in the SAAB series? Nope, 2 stroke Yamaha 500cc v4 1 Quote Link to comment
paradime Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 Ford V4 engine in the Saab Sonett was a pretty bad ass car though. Quote Link to comment

paradime Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 That's the 1957 Sonett I with a three-cylinder 748 cc two-stroke engine ^, the one I posted was the 1968 Sonett II V4 This thing produces 58hp. Imagine that little Yamaha 500 V4 produced 170hp in the 1985 GP bikes. 2 stroke = Stupid power Quote Link to comment
Cosmonaut Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 Always thought a Sonett would be fun...the bike engine would scream. 1 Quote Link to comment
goes2fast Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 Looks like this thing... This is not a Sabb, but a Griffith TVR which was powered by a HIPO 289 ford and weighed nothing, so very fast! Quote Link to comment
