All I have to say is... 
It's good to be Jay! Of course, I've always said one day I want to have a collection of cars likes Jay's. Perhaps on a smaller scale, but I want a collection like his.

I can believe that. I have thus far seen 2 different twin turbo 402-406 small blocks pushing over 1000hp at the rear wheels.
One was on race gas, the other pump gas. No bottle.

I'm sure it's a beefed version. I've seen 4L60's handle 1000hp engines before.Jersey
