Nope, take a look at the engine tables and rules as well.Quote:

While many of the same engines are listed in both tables, the level of mods allowed on some of them are vastly different. As to the K20; in P1 you are running stock intake and throttle body at 1400#, in P2 you are running a 55mm restrictor and racing at 1500#.Quote:

P2 it must be ferrous.
I can share my limit knowledge as it relates to the motorcycle engine powered cars. Specifically I've run Hayabusa powered Stohr WF1s in both P1 and P2, I believe the busa powered Stohr was considered the benchmark for P1 at one point in time.
Prototype 1
Built motors are allowed and most competitive cars are running 1440 to 1600cc
Brakes- are open, several cars run carbon brakes, or high end systems like Brembo
Paddle shifter systems are allowed
Considerably more Aero- large rear wing and tunnels
Prototype 2
Stock motors: Hayabusa/1340cc or 1L depending on spec line
Modified motors allow in the 1L spec line, add weighted and motor restriction
Brakes- steel rotors (only) and 2 piece calipers
No Paddle shifter systems, assisted shifting is allowed (flat shifter and auto blip on down-shifts)
Aero- smaller rear wing and no tunnels
Additionally the P2 Stohr has smaller inlet restrictors on the motor, and carries more weight (ballast)
At Road America lap times between the 2 spec lines: P1 Stohr is capable of 2:02 to 2:05, a P2 Stohr is capable of 2:10 to 2:13, obviously it's driver and weather dependent.
