Aren't those Noble M12's kit cars. I heard that they ship the body pieces over and the person has to find an engine over here and have it put togeather. Do you guys do that?

Here's a link to the company that put the engine in-
www.1gracing.com

Here is a link to a car and driver article about them-

They have a twin-turbocharged Ford Duratec V-6 engines and six-speed gearbox.

On our dyno, the Noble puts out about 317whp. Not a bad number actually for weighing in at about 2200 lbs.

We install the engine, transmission, intercooler, turbos, piping, traction control, etc on the Nobles. We are certified to diagnose and tune the standalone engine management systems as well.

We will be taking one this weekend to HIN Charlotte, NC along with a couple other cars hopefully.

Thanks!
