Default ILMOR/FOUNTAIN Combo

Just curious why anyone has not had the urge to build a Poker Run version of the P1 Championship combo thats a proven runner? I realize the Merc-Fountain deal but there are ways around this right?
Care to chime in?

Sponsorship deals are definitely not my call but you could approach the front office with it. We only do up to 700hp right now but are only 800lbs wet. Also its around 2 inches, I believe, longer than BBC

A great package for the 28 would be the 710 with the new NXT cambered skeg drive.

There are no Fountain fans that even thought about putting these in? I cant believe that. Not after seeing what Fountain Worldwide does overseas
