It came out of a running vehicle so I assume so if completed at a minimum (alternator, fw, ?)

300hp is good for a cmc car.

What's cmc?
For those of you who can add, ain't no way this is coming in at $500, it's just a matter of how much over $500 depending on what we can get for interior and stuff. But it will be (theoretically) a dead simple, reliable, 300whp 3,000~lbs Fox. This is not necessarily a deal breaker because they just assess a handicap for cost over $500 and we won't necessarily be way over $500 . . .
I really hope somebody can make it to the recon mission. I'd be very curious to get a gauge on what the real average level is. Showing up with something that sticks out too much on performance is a great plan for getting sent to the crusher.
