I recall someone saying that Yamaha made those engines.
They were fast cars considering the weight , one down side to them would be availabilty of parts.

Yes, yamaha does make the engines,  Pull th eplug wires out make sure there is no oil in there they were bad about that. Other than that great cars and fast.

You're right ,

Here's  a good link with the specs for the motor.
