do you need to do emission testing in order to buy the insurance for that comp???

AirCare?

lol

ur room must be filled up with Carbon monoxide eh?
do you wear a mask w/ filter while surfing on the net?

What is the point? I am not sure I see one. If it is for portability, I would really steer clear of that Ford engine, or any other American engine (although I drive a Ford...) and stick with a much smaller more efficient Euro engine. Concept is interesting.

Bah...he needs more HP! Find an old Chevy 350 or Pontiac 400. Get some major HP to that beast!

So how are we gonna benchmark the thing, Mhz per gallon? :rofl:
