V8

[EvolGrinZ]

Was looking at some cool car vids, when I came across this movie.

Its a mini V8 engine, 103cc.
i wonder if its possible to build an engine like that in like 30cc so it can fit the baja. That would realy be tha bomb :twisted: [/url]

thats a nice sounding motor, need to go into a 1/3 scale funny car or street rod imo.

a guy named Connely has built small hand size v8 motors and a few rc cars to go around it for years. google for connely v8, and you should get links.

they are the SHIT. BUT they are about $5000.00 for the motor, and around $7000.00 for the cars...

Would be cool to have a RC car with a V8. But it will cost me a lot of money to build one
Guess I'll have to do with my 454 cui V8 in my camaro instead :twisted:

Hey Evol,Gotta love them camaros

[phatdad]

that is one bad ass looking SS.

Thats a real nice Camaro mate :wink: . It's a '67-'68 model right?

I have a '78 Z-28, and its currently in the shop to put a 454 in. It's taking a long time to do so tho .
It's not a real routine job and I even need to get a new hood because the standard hood can't close anymore now.
This is the hood thats going to be fitted.

And here 2 pics of the car itself.

The SS has to be a 68 model as it has the side marker lights. 67's did not have side marker lights. I know because the 67 and 68 rear fenders are the same but there is no hole for the side marker light. You get to cut those out yourself :roll:

Plus 67's had the wing vent windows in the fronts of the doors. The only year Camaro to have them. So this is a by all means a 68. By the way, nice Z-28. I like the first generation Camaro's alot but the late 70 to early 80's were my favorites. There's nothing like a T-Top Z-28 with the factory ground effects and factory aluminum wheels. It's a shame you have to ditch the stock Z hood to fit the big block though. I really like the stock hood with the low profile scoop. If you have to change it the one you picked is the best looking aftermarket hood available. I would like to have one of those Z's for myself someday. But for now I will stick with my '63 Chevy Shortbed Stepside, I'm a pick-up kinda guy anyhow. :wink:

Not sure what i will do with the original hood. maybe I will put it on the wlal in my house or something :P

I realy love the '68 model Camaro too, but that type is about 3 times more expensive then the '78 model I have now.

But if i see how much money i'm pumping into this car now.....I coudl have bought a very good '68 model :?

But when he is finished I can say I have the most brutal '78 Camaro of the netherlands....maybe even of europe

I'm planning to get into a magizine with the car. But i need to fix a lot about the car, like getting the original interior back and a full respray on the outside and I ned new rims, because the chrome of the ones I have now is realy bad.
