Wow! Such an amazing car and build! Do you sleep at night or just lay in bed waiting for sun to rise to drive it again?

Honestly, I wish there were someone good enough here to build such lethal weapons!

IF I ever come back to visit Boca (family moved to MAryland), I'd sure like to take a look at the car if you haven't sold it by then

I was wondering how reliable a 4.0 stroker is. I have been looking at building a TT Stroker and originally wanted to go with a 4.0 kit but after reading and reading and reading, I learned that you can lose reliability with I believe it was called cylinder wall slap.What is your opinion on this? I am hoping to have HP out the ying yang but don't want to sacrifice reliability. Also who did your build?

......you are welcome to come and see it..... I keep it in TX because I spend most of my time there.

I just sold one of my cars to someone in the UAE.........they seem to love fast cars over there.

This car has been trouble free from day one. I have driven it from ATL to NC....drove it hard at ZDayZ.... and then drove it to TX. Did not have to add any oil at the end of the trip.....I did have the oil change at the end of trip.

This is a GTM motor with Cosworth heads assembled by Forged Performance. It even has a billet Girdle to protect the motor at high revs. Put it this way... This motor was over built.

I have never heard of any problems with a sleeveless stroker motor....I made 815whp on a DD .....1006 whp on a DJ .....could have made way more and still I can drive the car in traffic with AC on .....Traction has been a problem from day one because of the power and quick spool up with big motor and big turbos.....but I am in the process of correcting that with Traction Control.

Very nice. Is there anything you would have done differently? Also how many miles have you put on your setup?

I wasted a lot of money doing the 700 and 850bb turbo kit setup.... I should have went with a stroker and GT35r from the start.... I would have saved over 30k

I drove it back from NC which is around 950 miles....I only drive it when I am going to JTran which is around 17 miles from my house....So less than 1500 miles on this new setup. I want to sell it with less than 2k miles .

There are transmission upgrades now available. 800-1000 whp I think is now feasible but it'd still be a $120k car at that point that weighs near 4000 lbs with no warranty. If I lived near a tuner shop, it'd be tempting.

Are you looking to sell the motor or the whole car? If you don't mind me asking, how much did this cost you, and do you think it was more logical going this way or dropping an LS2 in?
Thanks...
