Well, my have to call it a hicost if you fit this!

Wow. That's really quite expensive for less than 100Bhp/litre!!!


CRAIGR - 20/3/10 at 12:33 PM

Nope

That's not bad... you would still have £10 of the £250 budget for all the other parts... oh no, hang on: decimal point in the wrong place

There are much better ways of getting 600HP but thats not the point.

I drool over that in the same way as i drool over having a cosworth DFV.

Euro lottery win and i would probably buy that just for kicks

Going by that theory, my 3.6 cost me £80 so for 24k, i could have a 300 cylinder engine

ETA - just worked out that would be a 1080 litre engine!

just get a scrap yard jag v12 and stick NOS on it.

mad money

You could get a LS1 engine from the US or a scrap monaro. Bolt a harrop supercharger and achieve the same BHP.

Fair play to the chap who has built it, sweat and tears etc.

However in my eyes even if Jesus built it alongside Ayrlton Senna.... Id never buy it
