Incorrect, $40,000 which converted at the current exchange rate is £26,666, so by my reckoning that\'s at least how much you would have to spend on a 20B for power levels lower than that?

I know which I would spend the money on, BOTH to be honest as if you can blow that much on one car you can do it to the other! Haha.
Notice aswell on the dyno pull the LSD revs to 7,000! Not as high as our rotaries but high enough!

As for the big block chevy?! I dint think it would fit inside the engine bay! Maybe best to put it in the back?!

I can honestly say I have watch most of Nelson racing engine videos and there is one engine in there that they have designed themselves, 9,000 rpm capability and up 500 C.I in a small block package!

When I claim my euromillions I will be having 2. And then Steve you can change mx5 motors name to Grants place. Hahaha

Gimmick gimme gimme! I want your car in my garage.

Whats the financial damage for a package like that?

I bet you can write most of the stuff through company taxes?
