He's using a camshaft gear drive. They're worse than a chain. Tisk tisk. He didn't buy any drivetrain components from us

If I want to get paid on Thursdays I have to say chains and gears suck compared to belts. Closest competition is gears so they suck more than chains.
F1 uses gears so what does that tell you?
I do know that gears do impart certain bad harmonics to certain valvetrains that belts absorb. All pro-stock drag cars use belts, all top fuel cars use gears, all nextel, busch, craftsman truck engines use belts.

0-60 in 2.85
1.15 g's
What's this thing weigh?
I agree with Philip though. 5-600 HP is doable with an NA big block, let alone what could be done with turbo's. I'm sure the decision to go Fjord Windsor had to do with the Shelby-Ford mystique and balancing the weight/ power/ drivability.
Any word on price yet?
