Jag - I'm sorry but I dont quite agree with those two comments, although I'm all ears to how you predicted 700bhp for the power?.....the Judd 5.0 and 5.5 V10 units have proven to be very reliable 24hr motors on several occasions.

could you please describe to me, with a few more numbers and percentages, how you come to 700bhp?.......whats the actual restrictor break the ACO have handed to AM ref the production based GT1 engine when jumping up to P1?
