That was my first thought too. Are basic 289's worth 1.4 mil now? I don't think so.

Somehow, I think you would have a different opinion if you saw a '63 Split Window Vette with a Roush motor in it.

Why does it need shims? I have one one my 428 and it just bolts right in place of the original starter. No shims, but it's a stock bell housing. Best 120 bucks I ever spent on the car, too.

McLeod's website blows. Everything I try entering for search criteria comes up with the same clutch kit that cost $940. It'll be a cold day in hell when I pay that for a clutch.

How much is a Prius, you ask? Whatever the sticker price is plus your balls, because you shouldn't have any if you're going to drive a prius.
