Mine has an aluminum monocoque chassis. Everything possible is aluminum. Car weighs about 2000 pounds. It has a six speed manual. The engine is based on an aluminum block 350 chebby bored and stroked to 427 ci. It has a torque cam. About 450 to 500 hp depending which induction system employed.

You have to be very careful with it especially on the street.

I consider it a lethal concoction and am reluctant to sell it to anybody I know.
