Not that I am doubting Dreadnought, but why is it twice as much (or yours half as much)!

Because I was lucky to find a second hand Roush (althought it had come off a new engine and had never been run).
If I had not been lucky to find one, I would have kept saving to get the K&B fitted by Brian at Dreadnought. I would of paid the £7500 ish price as I would be getting a quality peice of kit fitted by a top bloke.
It comes down to cash in the end, if you want something bad enough, you work hard to raise the cash and get it. Dreadnought have spent cash to develope the K&B fitting, they done 20+ cars V`s possible 4 that i know of fitted elsewhere. I have not seen any thread from those guys stating how much a none Dreadnought car cost to fit and Map. However, 4 x trips up and down to Scotland to allow the car to be S/C`d adds extra costs to the project and will not suit everyone. `You pay`s your money, you takes your chance`.
Jamie at Jam Sport Racing did a great job on mine and If you can find a Roush , I would highly reccommend him.
