Core? Nope, brand new stuff, and I have a nice low deck KB/B1 motor with a fogger system to trade in. Or a almost new mega block 540.
What's gonna cost will be putting it in. Tranny, converter, rad, another rad for the blower, tranny rad, fuel sys, instrumentation...$$$. Don't care. This thing can run on pump gas or so they say, and Huntsville Dragway is 5 odometer miles away.

I had to leave town the next AM cause my dad was dying, Randy wouldn't take a credit card, and they closed orders at 100 units in 2 days. I didn't get one. Sorry to hear about your Dad. I lost mine in October. As far as the Hellephant is concerned, you can build more power than it makes out of a Gen III for less money.

Randy said BES has the contract to build them. He also said the rumor is Mopar turned one of these alum blocks up and it failed at 1200hp. I am pretty disappointed but maybe this was meant to be. I have the moolahs and a car to put one of those in. You would think Ma Mopar would want to see a KOS Demon driving around and terrorizing the track. I've also heard the same from very reliable sources. TCI and 1500 seem like someones made up story and is complete fiction. I know they are having issues with the blocks. FCAs quality is top notch. I heard they've been scrapping quite a few of the Hellephant blocks. What the exact issue is I can't say. Yes BES is building them.

It came from Monty at YB, he works in that industry and when he was in there looking at one and talking to them about it (TCI) they are the ones that told him 1500hp in testing.

TCI like the trans company?
