I'm interested to see what the ZL-1 will cost up here. 60g's?
No, not a stretch at all. You can get a dealer warranty now on the 'tame' supercharger upgrade for the Shelby at 650HP. If you want to go without warranty, Ford upgrades are available up past 750HP. Getting that kind of power out of a 'standard' car is not cheap.... but the GT500 is a different beast, being the only platform ot offer bulletproof FORGED internals and bulletproof transmission\drivetrain.
