Is this a streetable motor? I didn't see where it said in that article. If it's streetable then those are pretty good numbers. That article just doesn't have enough info.

The lsx454r is race only and rated with 110octane fuel. 800-1000hp as a 'base engine' is unrealistic considering the competition. Even the zz572 monster engine is only rated at 720hp and that's with race fuel and it's listed at $18k.
