I was thinking it would be interesting mid-mounted in one of these - How much do they want for one?

Is this purpose made for the racing folk? How long is the warranty?

400hp from 2.8 lt sounds v. impressive - BMW release 265 from their 3.0 6cyl, no? But that lasts for years...

I'm off to google more info...

Sounds Awsome doesn't it !

It's basicaly 2 hyabusa engines joined together to make a V8, then made to fit in a car ...

They also make a kit called the H2 which is just one Hyabusa Engine ..

(http://www.h1v8.com/i/H2%20Busa/rt_side1sm.jpg)

The H2 is designed to provide a rugged durable platform for those that desire to put a Hayabusa engine in a car type application.  It has a billet case and sump, flywheel for mounting a clutch and rear drive take off, 60 amp alternator, 4 stage dry sump and starter.  Rear adapter plates are planned for popular gearboxes.  The engine is estimated to have a fully dressed weight of 140lbs and can produce 175 to 250 hp NA; and much more in turbo form.

The H2 BUSA engine is offered as a kit or complete engine.  The base kit utilizes the Hayabusa crankshaft by using a special adapter for mounting the flywheel.  A Stoker kit is offered with bespoke 72mm stroke crankshaft, with larger bearing journals, H beam billet rods and related pieces to allow building a 1.6 liter engine
