    supercar idea

    nice id add some kevlar to the tub for a bit of toughness. and maybe two turbos. that would be cool. if you're gonna dream, it may as well have four figure power (in kw, at the wheels!). with some hard work you could be driving this in a decade (or two).

    F1 parts

    does anyone else think that the headers in the first engine pic look like they're designed for a 2 stroke, whereas the second pic look like 'regular' tuned length headers. also, whats the cover on the front of the motor for?

    oil cooled engines?

    with no thermostat, the water isn't in the radiator long enough to transfer the heat to the atmosphere. thats why they overheat instead of being cooler like some would expect.
