I agree, who really cares that it makes 800+ horse, that just means they're reving to the moon, it'll last just long enough to say you have it, not to mention you'd never really be able to use it. Unless you count dyno time as useful. 
I'd rather have 800 ft/lb and only 560 horse, you could rip a sequoia out of the ground, and do it off the line.

Oh yeah.....can't use the power. The car runs a 9.2 in the quarter and is driven on the street.

So it goes 9.2 in quarter... all that means is that it's being reved near death while being run down the track and of-course it's street drivable, it probably makes all of 150hp below 4,000rpm.

damn homie....seriously though, i wonder how long the motor will last. I imagine he's got enough money not to care, but it's a reasonable question i suppose.
