The S351 uses a Vortech, and those cars are fairly quick. I'm not sure how
fast they are exactly - but I remember actually racing an older fellow in one
of these on my Suzuki RF900RR and from a roll it actually didn't do that bad
!

I've only seen one of these in person, though.

Roots style.... sounds like they might be using the whipplecharger to me....

but I could be wrong... I don't follow Fords that much.
