    you don't build a car like that, or modify anything, for that matter, for monetary returns

    Doing the math, 2000 horsepower at 12000 rpm = 942.67 lb/ft torque. I would guess the engine can sustain a little over 800 lb/ft steady state.

    more: 1523PS is about 1508 BHP, so torque at 12000 rpm is 660 lb/ft. Peak torque looks to occur at about 7500 rpm, which equates to peak torque of about 1015 lb/ft

    Topic was cost, not value.

    And I didn't say you couldn't talk about it, I said you're missing the point of a build like that. It's like saying a rowboat is a waste of money because it won't tow a skier...it's just plain missing the point.

    From now on, when I ask for head, I'll mean this.
