Mmmmm Jet Engine powered RX7... Would that be considered blasphemy if you stuffed that into an FD?

Do you know an engine roughly the size of a 13B block(no accessories) makes around 1400 hp?

I have seen this aircraft in person, I am a bit surpised that it's being sold. I can tell you that a ******* SHITLOAD of money was put into restoring it and it's a great looking a/c

I wasn't aware that it was the "only" one, but last I saw it it wasn't completed, it needed a lot restoration and assembly, but it looks like that was done. I would guess the owners have 5 to 10 million in it, but I don't know that for a fact.

It's actually in Amy's hometown.
