One of the most successful and longest-lived projects of Cosworth has been its Indy car engine program. In 1975; Cosworth developed the DFX, by destroking the engine to 2.65 L and adding a turbocharger, the DFX became the standard engine to run in IndyCar racing, ending the reign of the Offenhauser, and maintaining that position until the late 1980s.
Minardi also used re-badged Cosworth engines until 2005. Williams began testing the new CA2006 2.4-litre V8 in November 2005, which produced about 755 bhp @ 19,250 rpm (314.7 hp/L), [24] and began using Cosworth V8 engines for the 2006 season. In the same year, Scuderia Toro Rosso used detuned V10 engines based on the 2005 units.
In 2010 Cosworth returned as the engine supplier for Williams and three new teams; Hispania Racing, Lotus Racing and Virgin Racing. The CA2010 is the same 2.4-litre V8 base of the CA2006 used by Williams, but has been re-tuned for the then-mandated 18,000 rpm limit required on all engines, down from its original 20,000 rpm implementation.

Larrousse, therefore, had to switch to Cosworth customer engines for the 1994 season. As with Minardi, HB-VII engines were initially used, and then HB-VIII engines from the German Grand Prix onwards. The Larrousse LH94 was an 8-cylinder modified version of last year's LH93, which in turn was based on a 1992 Robin Herd design.
The Cosworth ED (also called the Ford ED) was an eight-cylinder naturally aspirated engine designed by Cosworth for Formula 1, which was used at the beginning of the second 3.0-litre era from 1995 to 1997. It was purely a customer engine for smaller teams and in this function replaced the HB used until 1994, to which it was technically related.
The Norton Challenge P86, also known as the Norton Cosworth, is a racing motorcycle designed in 1973 by Keith Duckworth of Cosworth Engineering for Norton Motorcycles.The 750 cc (46 cu in) DOHC vertical twin was essentially two cylinders from Cosworth's world championship winning V8 DFV Formula One engine.
