You guys are overlooking the simplest, most effective name. I would offer it up, but Jay is predisposed to reject anything I name, despite the intergalactic success of "Prison Break" strokers, because it would be more difficult for him to censor my posts and admonish me for being Politically Incorrect behind the scenes.

Well, if you are referring to a "Thunderbolt" head, I've actually been saving that name for a specific version of this head, that is still in the planning stages.  That does seem like the obvious choice, but I don't want to use that for this particular head...

Jay, why not just call these heads "Thunder" heads and save your name for the latter?

If your high-zoot heads are going to be Thunderbolt, maybe these should be FE Lightning...
A careful study of failure will yield the ingredients for success.

I dunno, Richard. Shoe Polish just doesn't quite instill FEar in people.

Was there someone who was the original "founder" of the FE, the chief designer or someone recognized as the lead for the engine series?  Maybe it would be a cool nod to whomever that would be, and also somewhat abstract which has its own coolness factor.

How about "FE Eliminator" or just "Eliminator"?
