[logans dad]

Drifte, Didnt you read the article, Its out of an army tank of the 40's. over 1050 lbs of torque and 500 hp on gas and he is going to run it on alcohol.

[s13kid]

holey shit, how much does that weight do yah think

[logans dad]

Block and heads is aluminum so I be it would be close to a big block or lighter. I bet it has a massive crank and rods tho.

[Stutz]

Damn

[Drifte]

i gotta chance to read it now. looks like that motor would benefit from some actual headers. That thing is probably a low revving beast. Need to google the motor and find out the power ratings.

[DustinsDuster]

he said the motor could make much more than 500hp/1050ft/lbs with mostly stock parts. 5.500" bore and 6.00" stroke....sheer madness and i love every way it could be better is if it were blown and fuel injected!

Block and heads is aluminum so I be it would be close to a big block or lighter. I bet it has a massive crank and rods tho. Im willing to bet its alot more than a big block chevy, I bet its more than an Iron hemi. Its prob got at least 6.5 bore centers. and with a 5.4 bore and 6.0 stroke! I bet the bobweight on one throw is at least 50 lbs. Vic that rotating assmebly alone prob weighs more than a BBC. I think its bad ass thou. If you ever get the chance to go to a Professonal tractor pulll, ATPA ,NTPA or Outlaw. You will see alot of rare and wild engine combos there that are big inch Na. I rember reeing a V12 Rolls Royce that that was 2000 ci, making 4000Hp all NA. Or 2 1100ci Twin turbo Allison V12s.

I bet your right on the being heavy but Looks like an interesting project. Hope some one keeps an update on it when he gets it running.

I know I use to give stevo some crap on his brothers wagon but isn't that really a project car? I'm sure he will get things worked out on it and be consistent on his runs.

EDIT: I just looked at the pictures again, That is an enormous fricken engine. Anyone notice the Hemi style heads?
