This site was forwarded to me earlier today. It is a 1/16 scale 327 chevrolet engine. The craftmanship is really unbelievable... Enjoy.

My typo, it is 1/6 scale...

I wonder if it puts out 22 horsepower (1/16 of 365 of the original).

OK, I misread it. It's 1/6 scale, so I wonder if it puts out a whopping 60 hp????? That would be AMAZING if it did!

Pretty cool though!

Is this GM's prototype for a fuel efficient engine? It would certainly clean up the engine bay since this engine could almost be put in the glove box.

(It is 1/6 scale.)

Amazing! just the time spent making the tooling is crazy. 8years from when he started till it first ran thats some dedication.

Should make around 1.2 hp little dude only displaces 1.1cu in

"The head and block began as billet aluminum that have been painstakingly machined on a Bridgeport-style mill."

Damn! "painstaking" is a good word to describe that. I can't imagine doing that on a Bridgeport. I would not enjoy that at all.
