Definatly easier to flex a body from the back than the front. Not as much holding things together back there, not nearly as ridgid as the front....since the front subframe supports a lot more than the rear.

Yea sure a front collision could damage the motor, but engines are fairly simple devices they require fuel, air and spark to run, if your engine doesn't run , one of those is the problem, and thank god we live in a world of computers where you plug in and you can find out EXACTLY what's not working right.
