      Well stated! I saw that as well but still chose to include it in Nissan's overall tally.

      It's a great motor but its displacement and age hurts it in the categories. Basically it only qualified for over 4.0 liter and best performance engine, tough group.

      It did finish in 5th place btw in the above 4.0 liter category.
