[QUOTE]Originally posted by Matrix: [QB] The nacelles of a starship most likely are designed to the ship itself. Thats why when the Enterprise when she was refitted never retained her orginal nacelles. In fact the nacelle pylons and everything around it was totally different. Everything is designed around something. Cars are designed around the engines, wheels, and such. Naval ships are designed around their propulsion system which includes their hull shapes and propeller shafts. Planes are design around their jet engines or their propeller engines. I doubt that Starfleet when it comes down to the normal refits t replace the warp coils that they use newer coils instead. If you think about it, if they have to shape the older coils to fit inside the nacelle then the newer ones can be shaped as well. We seriously don't know if the Excelsior is as fast or slow as we think. But Geordi did have a sort of a competition against another ship, I forgot what the name of her was but I believe that ship was in fact a Excelsior class. I have to check this though. [/QB][/QUOTE]
