If you force enough fuel and air into the intake, horsepower will come out the crank.

Sometimes parts will accompany it

This should be a killer build as Hennessy does top notch work.
I wonder if they will be able to top their Venom Gt with this

Sky's the limit when the wallet has none.
I"m hanging on till we see that guy from Australia selling it for 19.95 for a limited time only sale..
Hope they reach their goal but after 650whp its uncontrollable on street tires anyway and more of a pride thing to those with the funds....

1,000 BHP out of 6.2 l???

No one can do that!.

I mean a Kappa would have to produce 320 BHP to match that and that has never been done, right?

I think the most impressive engines for sheer ballsy power are the 500 c.i. hemis in top fuel and funny cars.

From Wiki...

Quote:
The calculated Power output of these engines is most likely somewhere between 8,500 and 10,000 horsepower, about twice as powerful as the engines installed on modern Diesel locomotives, and approaches the power output of the largest aviation turboprop engines, with a torque output of approximately 6000 lbf·ft and a brake mean effective pressure of 80–100 bar.

I'm not sure I like that grille very much. It looks like the car has braces.

Of course they have the luxury of being torn down after every race but for sheer output they're tough to beat!

I took a look at a 630 BHP Viper the other day. The owner figured it was pretty good output. I told him it wasn't even half the specific output of my Solstice.....
