Re: I want it!!

That'd be a mighty tall deck on that there v8. Have you seen F1 rods? they are 2 3/4 inches themselves, the stroke is about an inch, and the bore is something like 3 inches or around there.

There were some awesome facts in this C&D a while back when the ferrari team let a guy publish a book about the details of their f1 car from around 2000. it's redline is 18K and it rpms at 22k a second, so, in less than a second, it's at redline when free revving. not to mention the intake runners adjust length within that rev range, so they are moving quite fast also.

Like lance said, It's an amazing machine.
