I'll see if I can remember where I d/l it from. There was a guy at the lights with his foot in front of the sensor and lifted it as he went by.

If it is Gigliotti's Trans-Am car, then it is a (SCCA limited)313 c.i. motor puttin out about 550 horse solidly to the wheels with lots of weight reduction.
I don't know if he has built a ALMS car as well, if so then it would be on par, motor size anyway, with the C5R.
It does sound good though.
