Hi,
I don't know if any of you have ever seen this website. A friend of mine told me about it and I was blown away. A guy in the Napa Valley built, from scratch, a running blown hemi engine that displaces 5.655 cubic inches, revs to 12,000 RPM, 9:1 compression, 1" bore and a .900" stroke, and weighs 25 pounds. When you hear it run, you would swear that you are listening to a top fuel dragster. Check it out at www.weberprecision.com

Thanks for the link. Every page on his site is worth reading. This is the guy you'd like to have as your neighbor.

p.s., it only looks like a Hemi. It's actually a wedge engine.

I remember seeing a running 1/12 scale V-8 back in the 1970's in HOTROD MAG. That was real engineering, before CAD and CNC!!!
