I thought huh, blower driven by the prop shaft, wow.
Then further seen they're all turbocharged. Which I assumed. More huh. Then the belt driven LOWER, resembling a blower belt. Aha makes sense now.

501 on the OXE
479 for Cox.

12lbs lighter for the OXE. That max RPM will really give the OXE an edge, but at a price premium. And they are doing it with 2/3s the displacement.
