How small? It has a displacement of 6.09 c.i.d. (less than 0.1L)! Behold, the Stinger 609!

Looks like either an AMC or a Buick based on the exhaust port layout and the distributor / front dress.
My wife's great grandfather hand made miniature steam engines as a hobby. One or two were donated to the Smithsonian. One is in our safe deposit box, I think it is mounted on a dime (an actual coin valued at $0.10). I'll have to get a picture and post it one of these days. I've only seen it once, the day it was passed on to her. We decided it was too cool to keep sitting around and it should have the best protection "normal" folk could arrange for, so off to the bank it went.
I thaught this was going to be a discussion about putting a suppercharger on a LR4

Maybe I'm missing it, but I'm not seeing which of those pulleys is for the supercharger...
Yeah, no supercharger. The pullies are crank, alternator, water pump, and idler. It just has a high-rise/"air gap" intake manifold.
I'm thinking go kart.
Now THAT ONE has a supercharger!

I'm envisioning one of those tiny tyke electric scooters retroffited with one of those. Little Jimmy's gonna kick some ass today!

Yeah, my bad. I knew my picture was missing the supercharger but otherwise it looked more like the engine in the video in the Autoblog post I linked to (which does have the supercharger) than the other Stinger 609 pictures I found. Apparently this lil' engine has been through a bunch of revisions.

AMCs had siamesed ports like a SBC; distributor was in front though...
Looks like a Mopar to me.

Wonder if you could convert it to run on nitro for even more eye-watering, flame-throwing awesome-sauce.
