Nothing really.  I just want to make sure other people are given real facts as opposed to unsubstantiated, opinion based claims.

No, I actually work at the DSC 1 building currently.  It's in Allen Park near the Roush building.

The only Mod engine worth a crap (IMO) is the Cobra/Lightning supercharged engine. You can add 50+ lbs to the weight of a blown engine over one with a plastic Intake. That puts it close to 600lbs and probably over that because I don't think they include accessories in the engine weights. It's also bigger in size than a 429 Shotgun Hemi. Wheather that's impressive for a motor with just 390hp is debatable.
