Not as funny indeed! Thanks to your info, I am becoming dimly aware here.
Audi innocently mounts a manifold/header on its little motor that later
will become obviously useful in "New Dodge" world-beater/manhandler
vehicle. Naive engineers at Chrysler are impressed and pressed for time,
adapt said headers. Slowly, other similarly over-engineered German parts
infiltrate US assembly lines. In time, we are all one big Brotherhood!
Quick, somebody call Oliver Stone!
