Ford Pinto engine
It was used in many European Ford cars and was exported to the United States to be used in the Ford Pinto, a successful subcompact car of the 1970s, hence the name which is used most often for the unit. In Britain, it is commonly used in many kit cars and hot rods, especially in the 2 litre size.
American Jet Industries T-610 Super Pinto
The T-610 Super Pinto started off as a 1968 conversion of the United States Navy's Temco TT Pinto two-seat jet trainer. AJI modified the aircraft for light attack by changing the powerplant with the General Electric CJ610-6 turbojet engine and extending the fuselage by 10 inches. It featured a modified wing, wingtip fuel tanks and a swept vertical stabilizer as well as provision for two underwing hardpoints. The prototype first flew on June 28, 1968. The aircraft flew very well and now was three times more powerful, with only 20 pounds more weight than the original design. The United States Air Force (USAF) evaluated the Super Pinto during its PAVE COIN program in 1971, but had failed to gain any contract with either the USAF or Turkey.
