That will not sound like a 'freight train'. It will sound like money flying out of your pocket.
Keith, Barry and others here easily make 650 HP for half that cost. And if you only want 570 HP they'll make it in smaller displacements for far less cash.
Keith's right about the assemblers and dealers being Roush cheerleaders.  |
I agree profoundly. You're paying for the Roush name, just like Carroll Shelby's signature on your cobra's dash. I'll keep that money and put it to better use. Can't go wrong with the famed FE builders we all know here for HP, quality & price. Kiss your money away for a over priced "Roush".
