This car showed up in Art Center in Pasadena in ‘04. I just can’t believe how awesome the engineering that went on in building this motor. Just the amount if wiggings used, they must’ve bought stocks in that company..haha. Everything is polished, the AN fittings and wastegates are all matching colors, turbo manifold looks like an octopus and that carbon fiber intake, man. It is def. one of the best put together engines I’ve ever seen. And oh yeah, its a 500SL Pro Drag car from hell.
