That is definately a fact about the cars being used in the films that I was unaware of. Any idea as to why someone would go to all the trouble to do a complete engine swap, let alone one for a smaller engine for the movie shoots? Perhaps this could greatly shed some light as to why some people insist that the cars came with 4 cylinder engines. Though if true, perhaps the wording used on the new DVD's should be modified to give a disclaimer to say that the original V6 was replaced. -Robert vin 6585 "X" -Moderators: I know that BTTF topics are normal discouraged on the list here. However, this does indeed appear to be a specific topic directly relating to our cars. --- In dmcnews@xxxx, "Stephen Clark" <stephen@xxxx> wrote: > --- In dmcnews@xxxx, "Palatinus, Joe" <jopalatinus@xxxx> wrote: > > I recently purchased the DVD version Back to the Future (its > available > > in England now) In the commentary it says that all Deloreans had 4 > > cylinder Volvo engines. > > The "Animated Anecdotes" trivia track on the DVDs is speaking > specifically about the seven DeLoreans used in the three films, not > the other 8,576 cars which were not.
