Sure would be interesting to have some of that technology trickle down to the community (dry sumps; radical intakes, etc).

I spoke with Jamie at Bonefied a year or so ago and he said they were going to use a 4 bolt block he picked up from John Sullivan (LGNDLT5 on here). Recall he had Bryant turn out a special 3" short stroke billit crankshaft ($$$$$) with 4.0" cylinder liners & pistons to get down to 5 liters displacement in order to meet the rules. Also adapted an aftermaket ignition system to work on the LT5.
Anyone know if the car had any luck setting a new speed record for class it was running?

Bringing this thread back from the way dead. Does anybody know where this engine is today? I'd like to contact them about it... I have a project in mind :D
