I had to go look that up... it's actually short for "Ford - Edsel" according to the sources I found. The FE series included goodies like the 390, 427 side-oiler and cammer, and the 428 Super Cobra Jet engines. All from back in the day when tire-shredding torque was king.

A Porsche boxer motor at full tilt makes some sweet sounds. A well-built M-code 351 Cleveland @ 7500 rpm doesn't sound bad either! Can you say "Pantera"?
