1/4 scale HEMI (http://www.weberprecision.com/weberprecision1_008.htm) This is real and this guy is insane. If you browse his site, www.weberprecision.com, you can pull up exploded pics of the engine (crank/block/valvetrain/etc) all made by hand in his garage with some pretty trick computer controlled mini lathe and cnc machines. He built it just to prove what you can do with a lathe and a sh*t load of time on your hands. Turn up your volume and be patient, it takes a little time to load...

I ran across that site before. The guy does nice work.
I have a bud at work who's building a running 1/4 scale flathead. Some of the parts are just incredible! The club he's in has several members with running models. Some of these guys take several years to complete these deals!
Cool chit for sure!

I've run across some sites where guys have built 1/4 scale remote control cars and used motors that are similar but not quite as bad ass. I'll see if I can find em and post em.

I've came across a blown scale v-8 years ago and saved the video, just don't know how to post it up. The block was yellow in color. Another guy had a naturally aspirated v-8 with a really lopy idle coming out of pipes that were on top of the intake manifold. Kinda like reverse flow, but the carbs were on top also. Totally rad. Here's a link to his site

That Cobra was shown on Tim Allen's show, Home Improvement. They didn't have the driver in it, but he did fire it up and rev the engine a few times. Really cool to see it in action. Thanks for the link.
