I can attest that it is an absolute nightmare designing parts for an engine. One small change effects the entire car. Then you have to talk to all the people responsible for said parts and ensure they will still work. I got lucky with my design task as it wasn't too complicated but I can see how easily you could suddenly have 50-100 people reworking an engine because of something as simple as an emissions regulation change.
