the idea was thrown up in the air, the engine comes ready-to-race, they go for around 12k-18k(edit:used) depending on what you want in the engine, they are well built and ive never heard of problems resulting in build quality from them, i love to rev, i love hp, but i also love na, and this is a nice little package, with the right final drive and with this car being light enough, also with the manual and automatic transmissions holding up to over 300+ tq from accelerated prefomance's turbo build, small modification to the transmission bell housing and it should bolt up just fine, i do want to retain the butter smooth shifting in the manual, if the build can be done without buying a new transmission, that would be great... all my option are open, we will come to one solution if we decide to go down this route, i will let further development and R&D progress before i attempt the build
still deciding if i want to go auto or manual with this engine aswell
i think you can get a brand new H1 for 30k or something like that, but you pretty much just check valve tolerances and change the oil and thats all you do to maintain them...
EDIT: they also have a 4.0L v10 with 600hp under development, that will weigh as much as a standard 2.4L car engine, forgot the source, i found some info on it when i was researching the engine....
