Amazing Scaled down V8 engines

those are so cool. I wonder how many hp they make? How bad a$$ would it be to have a go cart with a mini V8 in it?

Can you imagine an old t-bucket replica go cart powered by a miniature flathead and made to look like a lakester?
 
I think someone with some machining skills needs to make a 1000CC V8 for their go carts. Shouldn't be too hard. Motorcycle pistons are plentiful shouldn't be too hard. Hell build it right and you could probably have 200-300hp at 12000RPMs...

Or hell use modified 50cc pistons and make a 400cc V8 that revs to 17000... Heck it would sound like a little mini F1 motor.
 
OMG... I thin kI just found a new motor for my party Blender!!!! Little Blown Blender?

Seriously though, I wonder what kind of HP a 103cc v-8 makes? I posted awhile back about a guy making scale model Cobras with functional v-8s that you could take out and drive... Would be fun.
 
one of those would be nice, the supercharged one would be the berrys.
i can see why they cost so much, they have a lot of craftsman ship invested into them.
