The original billet crankcases and crank of the engine fitted to this were made by my dad for an ex drag racer friend of his (in fact my old FZR1000 engine was used for the measurements), I think there are a few of these engines about now. Definately at least 5 as he made at lease that many crank/case sets.

good video there! seems to be fairly brisk! yeah would love a caterham r500, that would do it but a bit over budget!

as per other posts, 7 style kit car with a bike engine seems to be the fastest bang for your buck!

I think a 7 is the way to go wish my dads was that fast

I saw 5 F40's in a line next to an F50 and an Enzo yesterday just thought you would all like to know.

radical would do it!!!!!

juist get a caterhamR500!! done!
May not be 3.5 but would certainly be quicker than the Exige.

What you swapped your Exige in for? You not fancy the Evora next year?
