I was thinking the same thing.

That said, the term "game changer" is often used, but not often so apt. These motors are definately game changers and I can't say that I have been as impressed with any new product in a long time.

I can't wait to see these things in action!

Well they don't look like something you're going to sneak up on that's for sure.

That looks like one heck of a pipe dream... I mean motor. Looks like a work of art. Also looks like 557HP is all that's available right now. I'd bet they're around 100 per horse. Beautiful O/B.
