Shogun posted this site on the 7 board but I thought that you guys might like it.

Look at the very bottom of the page with the twelve individual throttle bodies which is kick ass but very pricey as with most things for the V12.

Hmmm for almost 67,000.00 USD

48,000.00 for the stage 3 and 19,000.00 for the TB injection,

what could we buy?

As much as the 8 is an awesome car, I don't see anyone spending this kind of money on a engine that will produce less than 500 hp.

Stage 2 or 3 TT would be a better choice and you'll have your 500/600+ Hp.

It is still port fuel injection not throttle body injection like some of the GM trucks but rather each cylinder has a individual throttle body so you can get more air in each cylinder.

Also if you were to build a M70, I would bet that you would pay close to that but yes I agree that the numbers are very low. Hopefully Ahmed303 will chime in here since he has a 6 liter M70 which is making more power than Korman's design.
