This is just too cool to pass up.  NOW to figure out how to get it pass the wife and make her believe it belongs on the boat.

I saw that set up at one of the Good Guys shows up in Pleasanton one year....the amount of work that they have to do was unreal...they had a mini hemi and the damn thing looked like it just shrank...lol...just too cool for words...but yes you could build a real engine for what they want for a toy......but still it would look way cool on the coffee table..... ;D   besides you could remote start the thing when the ole lady started ragin on you and it would shut her up......lol      oh oh....what dear??? lol

He's got that little blown V-8 on U-Tube.  I'd like to try cutting one of the tubine rotors on my cnc machine when it's finished.  Very Cool stuff!
