Tagline, read it and weep...
Yes, the car is for sale. I rarely drive it anymore and it is begging for a twin turbo setup that I can not financially provide in the forseeable future. Maybe someone else can add to this setup for this year's race season.
Prefer local sale rather than statewide ad as a few local guys who have seen it have inquired about taking it on as a future project if the engine became available. This engine is one of three custom made for a racing company that defaulted on payments and never installed them. The other two were sold off and supercharged in track-only cars. This is the only one that remains naturally aspirated and tuned by Jerry for street driveability.
Performance parts and upgrades far too numerous to list. Have the receipts for your inspection. About the only parts left stock were the body and interior. All suspension, engine, and driveline parts are aftermarket.
Serious inquiries only. Again-- Serious inquiries only (this means the car has no asking price, and if you have to ask, you shouldn't).

What's so magical about the motor?
Is it similar to this one? Both are 318 C.U motors.

Hopefully he finds a buyer for it.

If you don't want to ask a price, then auction the thing off.
