that's a pretty nice car for sure. I would want to raise the hoop on that cage but that is minimal money to fix.
I would say he has more than $25K in that 3.8L unless he built it himself. That is the problem with the Porsche motors.. to make that kind of power you will spend serious money and probably spin the hell out of it (doesn't note rpm the HP was at). Looks to be a nice ride nonetheless - good and light and looks sharp. I don't know about the Hewland, but I highly doubt it was anywhere near $40K (or the guy shoulda considered other options). I am considering a heavy duty sequential for mine in the $13K-$14K range, and a lighter non HD setup (but enough for that engine) would knock that down closer to $10K. I can see that he would have $110K in it paying others to do it. Knowing what I have in mine that couldn't be duplicated for less than $80K, tack on a few K for the Hewland, and around $20K more for that -6 and that is close to $110K right there. If he had a Porsche guy do the cage, that probably cost about what my full tube chassis cost, so that would be break even. |
