The harrop one is closer to 800 hp I thought? That's the Supercharged one. Or you talking about the early development 550 NA?

That was early development atmo engine with truck cam and just GT350 intake.
The 800 hp blown version is still basic truck engine with blower and E85 tune,
massive potential in that thing…..
The 6.8 will be a hipo US engine with commensurate high price.
Yes, fuel price is an issue with anything ICE that makes big torque and hp
but that would be less important to those that can afford three or four mega toys…..
