100% agreed. It's cool to see OE elements 'tweaked' w/a modern/current vision while retaining the visual old-school impact. It's like when designers sit down & sketch something out on paper. They look so good..... But, the bean counters get involved to make the drawing concept work 'best' for the masses & the final product is VERY different (yet visually close).

I shudder thinking about the price tag associated w/that combo of parts alone from a blue-collar guy/home builders perspective. Then there's the talent + materials required for the remainder of the details....

I truely expected this one to be a Home-Run as well based on the quality of parts, talent, & effort put forth w/their Syndicate Series 01.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
