It's not a bluetec motor. It's just over 400lbs.

One million isn't really enough, i'd honestly buy a house in cash and quit my job and live off my wife's salary so I can get a job making crap wage at some performance shop working on cars all day.

I could swing it with a million. I have a funny story from when I was 20 and "almost" won 1/2 million. It's a long story, short version is, coworker and I couldn't agree to buy this $20 scratch off that was for 1 million instant tax free. I wanted to buy it, he didn't. 2 hours later a lady came in, purchased it and won the million. That sucked a lot, I was a very broke SOB back then.

I absolutely love diesels. I got the idea after watching the Black Smoke Racing <-(link) diesel wagon on youtube. I started looking into Merc diesels and was just floored about the power they make while still being outrageously efficient.

Me too, I call her the Race Wagon. 2010 JSW TDI. Retired to make room for the miata at the track:

And good mpg on the track! My favorite was the guy in the Cayman that said my TDI was fast and wanted to know what mods I had. LOL, I told him, brake pads, fluid, tires? He then asked what it's HP was and left feeling sad.

Sorry for the thread jack.

To get us back on track, I think along with an LS7, I would also have to make a BMW Diesel powered NC2 with PRHT.
