I probably could find a way to get a BOSS 290 in the states.. Probably thru EBay, and shipped DHL. But 290Kw? converted to Horsepower in the USA 290Kw = almost 390Hp!
The SVT Cobra comes stock at only 305Hp... and the Supercharged 5.4 in American F-series trucks is about 380Hp.
You're right about it being a shit-load of power, but the cost to have it imported and installed would be ungodly.
