Discussion
Just spotted this in the classifieds. Not considering it myself (and I have no connection with the ad) but thought I'd bring it to everyones attention 
Could bring a smile to your face as you hit the loud pedal !!
Anyone know anything about this monster motor ??

Yeah - built for Paul Searle on a pretty much open chequebook build by Rob at V8D with the Turbo system designed by another proffessional outfit (forgotten the name). It is an EXTREMELY well sorted engine with a professionally designed and built bespoke system.
As Paul says in the advert, running on Emerald's dyno it made over 600 torques at 3k revs before it started spinning, so there is likely more to come from the engine and something like 700bhp. Crazy numbers. I remember being on track with the Griff that used to house this engine a couple of years ago at Snetterton, and it left the sc500 demonstrator I was in for dead.
I very nearly bought this engine to put in my Tuscan race car a couple of months back, but regulations, installation difficulties and other such headaches made me leave it be. I would love to buy it and put it in my Chim but unfortunately I don't have the funds to spare..! It is a very well engineered package though and will drop straight into a Griff or Chim

Sounds impressive to say the least. Can't begin to imagine how quick it would be in your Chim, and imagine how much faster again it would be in a Griff 
I think it would have been better in the Tuscan Challenge car than the Chim or a Griff! The 4.7 AJP should make a nice alternative though
