Default Now HERE'S a conversion engine!

The amazing 3/4 scale "Thunder Mustang" and it's even more amazing V-12 engine. (Basically a 3/4 scale Merlin built using a lot of Chevy parts as well as some beautiful custom engineering and construction.) Check out the attached .pdf files for specs...

Isn't it?? I just love it. Hard to believe how the performance specs are even better than the original Mustang, in some cases by quite a bit.

If I ever won the lottery, it would be the first thing I bought!! (The kit costs 200 grand!)

Wonder what size servos you would need??
That would make them stutter step at the Giant Scale thing in FL.
