There are many videos and stories about how the blocks for the BMW 4 cylinder engines came about. The rumors have always been (and I think I remember seeing it in an interview, somewhere but can't quote it) that they came from a road car and the engine guys threw them outside in the elements to cure. Then, after several weeks to months outside, they were cleaned up and used as the most powerful F1 engine, ever. Crazy stuff.
