Totally useless though for anything other than a hillclimb or F1 car.....

Would need another 10K of ECU,Manifolds and Turbo to get it running and will need a £20k rebuild every 1500Km...

Collection though so not as if your trusting him to ship it, anybody with half a brain and 15K would want to go and have a look before hand anyway before stumping up.

Not at all IMO, if your daring/nuts enough...

If you want to run full Indy car spec and run it as hard as Indy cars do.

If you was mentalist enough to run it as a road car it would last a LOT longer and not cost half as much.

Bet at a more sensible compression, revs, and not running engine killing methanol, and itd do 800bhp in turbo form for a suprisingly long time...

Its like RS500 road engines compared to race ones of the same power, or any engine like that...
