i would get a GT500 and swap blowers to the new whipple 2.9.

not interested in road racing, so i wouldn't need all that suspension work, or the styling, or the aerodynamics, plus i think the GT500 would be a better platform to work from.

I got an email from Lethal about that blower. I wonder how it does compared to the 3.4L? I would think the 3.4L would be better. Maybe this is just a cheaper way to get more from a GT500 and the 3.4L was too much for some?

My understanding is the 2.9L is for those who want it to fit under the stock hood.
Personally if I had a GT500 I would get the 3.4L and a cowl rise hood but that is just me.

LMAO at Legion. You obviously did ZERO research before posting this. As others have already stated, those prices do not include the actual car.

Ah yes I forgot about that issue. A work around was to lower the engine and raise the body, but I guess that's not desirable to many people.
But if I had a GT500 and was going to upgrade the blower, I'd choose a Kenne Bell Mammoth but that's just me.
