This is nothing new. Unique Motorcars has been installing Elliot built stroker windsors in customer cars for years. I don't recall the horsepower ratings, though, but an early one was featured in Nov '92 Kit Car with 565 HP. That engine was stroked to only 358 ci and ran a 10:1 compression ratio (I think some later versions went as high as 454 cubes). Turnkey price was listed at around $75K. An Elliott powered Unique also graced the cover of the famous Dec '91 issue of Car & Driver with the big Pat Bedard Cobra article. Interestingly, I recall reading in one of the articles that during intial testing, Elliott's best efforts failed to destroy the stock Jag IRS and one owner ran his hard for years including numerous dragstrip passes with no breakage.
