DRCE Engine on e-bay.

Not mine.

I assume this would be good for a boat and nothing more.

A little over $15 a HP is cheap for this motor, providing you've something to put it in!!

He's been trying to sell it for a while. It's been on eBay before.

A bit more than I need or want to spend. It would look cool in something though.

I would love to find somewhere to put it if I had that kind of money to spend on it.

That's a steal considering he put $65,000 into it.

It would fit into a Cutlass very nicely.

What's the usability on something like that ? Does it have a usable rpm/power range ?

I remember when those engines were introduced and could be purchased through our "then Olds" parts counter. Some of the big name Pro Stock guys were using them. Providing it is what the seller says it is, someone will be getting a lot of motor on the cheap. And I agree with Joe D. (RtR) that engine will fit in a lot of cars.
