    Another tiny V8



    Be sure and check out the whole site. The shop tour made me feel really low, what lovely lovely machine tools this guys has. Anyone who can make (right down to the piston rings, the only things he bought were the valve springs and the Walbro carbs) their own miniature blown V8 has my respect.
    Supercharged V8 shifter kart FTMFW!

    '90 AWD Protege, yet another GTR swap, Open class rallycar with a Toyota GT4 gearbox swap, thus crossing the line between hobby and mental illness. And a Brabus E55 K8, removing all doubt.

      The video of it makes me think it might be kinda badass. Killer throttle response, sounds like.

        That would be absolutely wicked in a shifter kart, like you said!! Or some other low-slung, aero'd-up custom jobby around the same size!!

              I found it elsewhere and then saw it on GRM later, so that's just more reason for everyone here to get on that board too. They are tres kewl.
