Agreed. Flywheel maybe, but who would need more with that PW ratio? Must be a blast, if a tad uncomfortable.

I got a ride in a convertible one at V Max a few years ago, yes fast (almost matched my Ro, but not quite top end!) but God it was raw and uncomfortable!

That looks like a very standard intake manifold for a 600bhp LS engine. Is it an ls3 manifold presumably? As the stock ls2 one wouldn't have a chance of making that much power.

Interesting how they've just left 2 coil packs floating on top as the header got in the way, classy!

At least the HT leads are wrapped in gold foil, why haven't I thought of that?

I'm sure with that power to weight ratio it feels like 600bhp whatever it's really putting out! yikes

Maybe the Porsche gearbox has a lot less power loss than the tractor type t56 prop shaft & diff on the r8 & Monaro wink

Except they are saying it's 590-600bhp at the fly.

You should do it. It's where Pagani and McLaren find all their horsepowers.
