Answer 1

Indeed - However, there was more to him than just engine tuning -

But he could have choosen a better colour than that awful green !

A good read - Francis Beart; 'A Single Purpose' -

Answer 2

Like I said, I think if he was in the game now he would be up on the technology too. and would still be a top tuner in a top team.

but its all hypothetical.

Answer 3

I know, I said that !!

To be honest Albert, if old man Frank was to see a modern MotoGP engine, he would not have a clue.

The modern race bikes have so much tech going on, it like looking inside a computer rather then a bike engine.

Yes, good old tuning is still needed, but the engines are to a level that is almost unrecognizable.
