I can keep up with a stock N54/55 up to 60-80mph pretty easily now with only around 210whp/wtq (it'd pull away quickly after that because of power difference).

Now swapping it for an S54, S62, S65 or S85... different story.
that's why he was saying the N54/55 with the ZHP transmission

but yeah, be hard to not put any of those other engines in their as a good alternative.
