when i was a kid i had a powerwheels jeep and my dad wired in another battery so it was 18 volts instead of 12, i could do donuts with that thing on blacktop driveways. immagine what a powerwheels jeep could do with that V8!

Wow. Just imagine what could have been done in 7 years with a full scale version.

If the question is "Why?", I guess the answer is "Because I can!"

If he eats all his gasoline, and doesn't eat too much of that junk NOS, he'll grow up to be a big block like his daddy.

As cool as it would be to have hand built micro carbs, and as much as I want to NOT take away from the utter and extreme coolness of what this guy did, I read the entire thread, and he said they came off weedwhackers.
He did handbuild the tiny distributor, water pump, oil pump, cam, valves, retainers, pushrods, timing gears, crank, rods, pistons, and alternator, etc etc etc, so badassery is still abundant in this mans work
