have any specs on the motor??? just keep in mind that most "truck" motors are just that. good for climbing hills and hauling drywall, not for "literally flying". Im interested in these specs. keep posted.

Well... It might be faster than a 305. Depends on the heads and cam on the truck motor. BTW most truck motors are quite torquie but lack top end.
