In that case there is a 700hp Nascar truck engine on WSalem craigslist! Cost the guy 46,000$ but for you today 12,600$
Tired of the same ole same ole... heard enough nascar engines to not want one... I want to be different. I like the challenge of the unknown... and think the sound will set it apart from all the others. May just go Kurplunk Boom... but I think positive and think it will be awesome

The fuck? Is that just a shit ton of rust or is that some sort of cooling system thats way past its prime?
