Not questioning the motor itself, but the choice in a high end project. Money doe not seem to be an issue

Big cams and blower whine aren't everyone's thing. Some guys want a reliable car/truck that they can drive to shows and have a little fun with, but not have to hassle with a lengthy and expensive motor build that at the same time is completely unnecessary.

Now, they haven't touched on anything being done to this motor, but I'm more than willing to bet that it isn't just some crate motor. It will have some bolt on goodies at the very least.

Personally, I love factory/crate motors. Some of the best and most reliable out there, that's why I chose one for my truck. 400+ factory rated engineered horsepower and matching torque in a smog legal, completely reliable, package. You really can't ask for much better for the money.
