Someone could get the idea that Ron, 4910, just feels the need for speed!

Was thinking the same thing Karlos  Plus Ron just happens to a have a Black Snake with all Alum. 511 (So I'd say Speed & Power). We have one of those guy's up here. Brent (EM-0785) just had to have a 514, I would expect just for Bragging right's. So I had to add a little more HP in my collection, I've always wanted a Dodge Dakota 5.9 RT, found a two owner 105,000miles Red with a club cab. In 1999 they were the second fastest (Car-Truck) the USA built, plus they pulled .94 G's, on a skidpad. It lights the tires up Sooooo...... easy. TommyRot.

I do have a black CSX with a Roush 511. I also used to own a superformance with a 514, the motors were pretty equal. If it goes fast I like it 
Excited to check on progress next week of my 600 CI- 1000 hp on pump gas Kaase Motor in my 67 mustang Build on a full roadster shop chassis |

Ron, is the kaase engine his camer version? I have watched several videos on his builds. Really cool. I remember at the Pavillions probably 10 years ago an original camer started up and everyone turned to see where it was coming from. Trailered in. Sorry for the hijack. Hope to be healthy enough this year to see at Xmas get together. Gary

It is his Boss 9 motor. It is fuel injected but designed to run on pump gas and produce just under 1000 hp and 850 ft lbs from 2000-6000 rpm

There's plenty of evidence to conclude people will pay a premium to have a 'genuine Shelby'. I don't see that changing any time in the near future.

I too, can't imagine the willingness to to pay a premium will diminish.
Now, if only I could sell my AZ beach front property....

Mike, with all the money you made on your Windex stock, you don't need the money

Kind of weird to hear the engine over my shoulder instead of in front of me....and it sounds like it’s in the car with you (because it is..)
15 inch brake rotors....They look like garbage can lids.

@da56panman This started out about a polished Kirkham on BaT, and then the post just lost it's way As sometimes it does. If you read the Whole post it makes sense. Cheers TommyRot |

Mike & Ron, this just proves we can talk about other makes of cars, without making too much fun of them At least compared to your New "Porsha" Friends TommyRot. |

Maybe, so.
But I think you gotta live where you don't see sunshine very much....
