Anybody ever seen one of these up close?

Cliffs notes:
Custom V8 made from two Hayabusa heads putting out a nut-crushing 400 HP @ 10k RPM and 245 FT-LBS torque.

Take a look at the gallery. They put one in an Atom :eek: I think I found my dream track-car engine!

Yeah, it's pretty expensive at $28k. But for a non-crate race tuned motor that would kick just about anything in its displacement class, that's about right I'd say.

Ariel is charging $70k or something stupid on that motor for the Atom, pushing the price up to around 160k lol.

I actually didn't even see that posting on the blog until just now. I was looking for 'busa engine setups for a track car and stumbled on this thing.

They also make a H2 Busa 4 cyl. kit-only $8500 (or $12.5K for the stroker version) and you supply the donor motor.

Spend 10 gs for a brand new 08 or 09 motor. Spend 3 grand for the turbo kit. Spend 1000 beefing up internal shit and have 400 hp.

This seems to be a popular idea as of late....

2 Honda CRV heads + custom crank + custom block. Very cool stuff.
