Holy crap! They have a factory GM parts list for 1000-1400 hp motor builds Talk about making things easy. Can you imaginine if Honda NA did this or anything close to this? I wonder if you compared the price for a 1000 hp Honda motor build-up vs. a similar GM setup which would be cheaper to run a season with?

I have actually looked into building one of these but I found thats its still cheaper to build a competetive honda in t4/sfwd...but building one of the race cars might be a little more reasonable...

With the kind of support you can get from GM, I think if I ever built another racecar it would be a GM.

I was kind of surprised at the head flow numbers. They did not look like anything spectacular.
The problem with building one yourself is that you won't have a Jack Roush built race car to drop it in. That would be another 60K
