No logic what so ever and this is why some engineers will allow engines that are outside the "recommended" capacity

We can legally fit a 2.3 ecoboost that makes more power than a 351
The V6 that I'm using has 170kw (less than most modern 4 cyls) and weighs less than a 2.0 pinto but doesn't fit in the the recommended capacity
