Fubar231 Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 From what ive read the car is in Russia, and if it is i cant WAIT to start seeing it pop up in Dragtimes.info videos, and hopefully do a 1-mile race against the 2005whp UGR R2 Lambo.

Stretch Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 Anyone know the power plant on that?? Those were originally Ford powered right?? The massive 7.0-liter V-8 engine is assembled in a squeaky-clean room that's appropriately dubbed the Speedlab. The motor is loosely based on Ford's NASCAR racing engine. It retains the Ford mill's deck height and bore centers, but the block has been redesigned and cast in aluminum rather than steel, a move that Saleen vice-president of engineering Bill Tally says saves about 150 pounds. It's a pushrod engine with two valves per cylinder. That may sound a bit low-tech for a $400,000 car, but we're convinced of the packaging and low-end-power benefits that such engine architecture allows. Tally says the pushrod 16-valve layout is compact and permits mounting the engine low in the chassis. That also lowered the car's center of gravity and made room for a low-end torque-boosting tower of nine-inch-long intake runners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93fox Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 It's a proline built 670 C.I. 10.2L motor with twin 100mm turbo's and "switchable" awd/rwd configuration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if it'll stay cool enough (assuming a somewhat streetable car)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
