I am sure I have missed some parts as well but here is the first 15,750 and i
suspect i am low on many parts as well.. When you are done as an E engine you
might hope for 500 hp on a very good day.. now start trying a different cam
intake carb and headers to make more power and see where you end up..
20 to 25k for a 4 liter IRL engine tuned with electronics is virtually a gift...
It just seems like a lot all at once. And yes this is a real engine that I am
taking about not a hypothetical one.. We are in the process of trying to acquire
one or two of these if we can them released.. If no one here is interested pass
it along if you know anyone that has an interest in buying one..
