again, less tech and give a more financial point of view: mercedes, renault, ferrari and honda in 2015 will be the engine suppliers of 2014 f1 spec turbo-ers units. Mercedes, renault and ferrari are not interested to step inside WEC, honda will use the modified indy engine.
To modify an f1 engine for endurance races, ferrari/mercedes/honda/renault will have to spend a lot of money in R&D, and if very likely they won't step inside, who will buy these engines? lmp1 private teams? please come back to reality... renault will ask more than 20 mln of € per season to supply their engines to f1 teams, wich private endurance team can spend even only the half just for the engine's contract?
