It can be confusing for non-enthusiasts, but the 3L measurement in this news is the blower, not the engine. This is the metric used for positive displacement blowers, in particular, like the Whipple. The engine is still 5.0L. For a moment I was excited. I'd be a little bit interested to see someone come up with a smaller V8 -- more efficient, but still all the right noises! Still have higher pumping losses compared to fewer cylinders, but might be worth it even still.
