I bet that's a wicked sounding car.
I want one so bad.
dang!!! that's sweet. it sounds a lot better in the track/dyno vids than it did at sevenstock.
but you gotta love those sevenstock rev sessions. i was there one year and they revved the snot outta Abel Ibarra's old R-100. poor little cold engine...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6jxvOh-urU i think the 787B sounds a little more refined
http://www.gopurepower.com/ one of the vids lists this oil company
think they change the plugs from underneath the car?
typical rotary tuner, why bother dialling in the cold start enrichment or idle
i'm not too impressed with the "airbox" and radiator mounted at the wrong angle (air has to make a +90 degree turn to pass thru the core, then has to make another +90 degree turn to get out the hood)
and it would have been nice to not see the ecu sitting in the engine compartment...

i'd guess around 10k because those long eccentric shafts like to flex
