Haha, so I gather. I really like idea of factory turn key drag car. Mopar are only making 50 this year though. Man I would love to get hands on Drag Pak.
F**d is a four letter word in these parts.....
Ah, behold, the Toyota E-type!
This general design is easily my favourite car shape of all time. Bonnet for days.
1952 Siata 208 CS Corsa Bertone Spider, 2-liter Fiat V8
2.83" bore, 2.41" stroke V8 set on a 70 degree bank versus the standard 90 degrees that most V8's are. That had to be an interesting one to engineer.......
I guess that's one way to get torque out of 2 liters. Those pistons must be the size of shotglasses.

Around 110 lb ft according to Invalid Link Removed- so about the same as a first-gen Mazda MX-5, and around the same weight as one too. You'd certainly want to be revving the hell out of it in general though.
That's a 125 cc cylinder x 12.
Honda made 250 cc 6 cylinder racers in the sixties.
That's six 41 cc cylinders. So about 6 shot glasses (=35cc).
Bigger than thimbles.
