I thought this was a cool video....

Says it was suppose to be 300hp at the motor, out of only 28.5LThat's 10.5 HP/L for the tuner crowd....

28.5 L is the equivalent of 1740 cubic inches so that is only about 1 horse per 6 cu. in. Kind of in line with the times. This engine should be in a factory driving a generator or drive belts. Maybe the engine was in the Fiat plant and they decided to build a chassis around it. Considering the mass of the engine, this was probably like moving a well loaded large truck.

135mph in that beast. No thanks. But great achievement. The torque would be phenomenal.
