I saw this on another board, thought you car guys may be interested in this.

***********************************

Thought all you car nuts might find this very interesting. Handmade 1/6 scale Chevy 327 engine based on a 1964 365 hp Corvette motor. Be sure you click on the video so you can hear it run. He actually starts it and it sounds great. This is almost beyond comprehension. Unbelievable. This man has talents bordering on the supernatural. This goes beyond what most of us can only dream about. And he did it all on a Bridgeport milling machine. After viewing all of the pictures, be sure to catch both of the film clips of it actually running.

I just saw that this fellow has built other small scale engines too. Pretty neat.

Click on the link I just put up, and check out the Challenger V8. An RC car.

I would love that, I have a soft spot for 327s as well.

Ubelieveable. It never dawned on me, as many gas powered RC cars as I owned as a kid, that something like this could be made, much less made to run.


Now if he gets some serious inkling and builds the 1964 Corvette scale model to put it in, I'd be in hysterics....and calling to ask how much it would cost to buy one.
