Mini TPI engine.

I ran into this on youtube and thought I would share it. Looks like a mini TPI motor. Its a DOHC V-8 thats fuel injected. Amazing what people can make.

Re: Mini TPI engine.

did you read on his website that this is NOT the actual engine he wants to build, but is just a test to see if he CAN build what he wants & make it run.

i find it absolutely amazing that he put that kind of time & effort into a test, not to mention the detail it has.

Re: Mini TPI engine.

That engine probably has more horsepower than a 305.
