That is the GM "Sprit of Bonneville" car. INTENSE'* race block is a modified version of Lee'* engine from that car. In fact GM used the top of Scott Cook'* BADSSEi engine in a run done last year that propelled the car to above 170 for over 5 miles (at something like 7grand rpm).

Originally Posted by www.intense-racing.com
This completely assembled short block evolved from the original design by Lee Performance Products, and is actually somewhat superior to the setup used in the Spirit of Bonneville race car, which became the first production FWD car to achieve 200 MPH on the Bonneville Salt Flats in August 2001. Our race blocks have endured 502 horsepower at 7,100 RPM for five miles straight at Bonneville Speed Week, and peak horsepower of 655 horsepower in our Turbo Project Car. At INTENSE, we do NOT support using sub-standard components in order to reduce rotating mass. Although lightened bottom end components may increase your horsepower in the short-term, we do not feel the risks are worth the potential gains. It is important to understand that while this engine will not actually increase your horsepower, it will survive the horsepower the rest of your combination can produce.

Actually it was black, at least on the 5 mile run.
