Now you're basing the reliability of the 152e on a single series of races. It's mentioned the 152e was very successful in many forms of motorsport over it's time in the spot light.

If you want a top quality motor able to withstand (as quoted in many articles) 600hp for endurance racing; 800hp for harder racing and variants between 1000-1200hp for the other racing spectacles, then you can't look past a 503e. Worth at about $15K and spare parts being almost impossible, that might be a bit hard to begin racing one again in this day and age and the same goes for a 152e engine.

Where are these motors now and even if you had one running would you dare race it risking it's very existence?

Just my 2c worth...
