No, it can't. Simple as that.

EDIT: I'd go as far to say as it probally doesn't have half of that amount.

Don't forget the amazing amount of engine grounds (from the valve cover down to the header ). Those have to be worth something too!

No way 280 but, I've heard that grounding your engine can really help. No ****. I think it had something to do w/ the static electricity taking away from the spark or something. Was in a super street article long time ago. Can't remember why but they sure did believe in them.

replace ALL factory grounds (valve cover, battery, tranny, and alternator). then dd one more to the valve cover (bottom right hand corner to near passenger headlight) and another from top of valve cover (or intake manifold) to somewhere on body. it helps to give the plugs a stronger spark. you will only detect a big diffeerence if you have already modded your engine significantly, but i cant hurt.

and those grounds to the header are for the nology hotwires. they have a built in cap so you need to ground them with those straps, only they need to be grounded on the valve cover not the header bolts. header gets a bit to hot for comfort.
