HAHA, I wanted to make a 4.2L B-series V8 exactly like that. Stroked, bored and grafted together.

Although one of the timing belts is not a simple job to change. Gotta take off the tranny, clutch, flywheel, etc.

SCC did an article on that a year and half ago.

yeah, that thing is pretty wild. it was actually done a while ago, about a year after the hayabusa was introduced, it was put into a land speed motorcycle to try to break 300mph (i think that was the number) the guy who did it first was just some backyard machinist who was doing the landspeed records for a hobby. he wouldnt let out any details, other than it was 2 'busa engines grafted together. turbocharged and all not sure if they got the idea from him, or if it was a separate thing. the interview was actually floating around streetfire.


nonetheless thats one nasty motor. if i had the cashmoney to buy one of those id slap that sob in the hatch of my rex.
