Wow. Wonder what that will cost?

Wow is right!! I've been eyeing the Roush supercharged 5.0L RSC for a future project. That thing is rated at 600HP. If this thing comes in anywhere near 760HP in crate engine form, that's a monster of an engine.

My guess is at least $30k and more likely high 30’s. So first guess is $35-40k based on what I have read about the Raptor getting it.
