Got to think Cig/OL are planning on installing a few sets as well.

There is a couple 38 Powerplays in the classifieds that really could use a pair of 860s too!

I believe right around $200k a set give or take. As it was told to me they would be $50-60k more than 700s.

Is that for just the motors, or motors with drives for $200k for the pair? If it's $200k for just the motors, that's crazy $$$. I only paid $42k per motor for my 800hp NA Sterlings back in 2005. With headers and tailpipes I was still under $50k per side.

Looks like you're correct Chad - still a lot more than I paid for my Sterling/ASD setup. With drives and trans I was still under $70k per side. But 13 years later and newer technology, $100k isn't bad if they're complete with trans and drive! Those engines finally trump my NA Sterlings......
