Have you guys ever seen or heard of the guys in britian who joined two hyabusa engines into one V8?
Absolutly incredible!! Hyabusa engines put out something like 150HP+ out of like a 1-1.3 Litre engine right? So it makes an incredible little, very compact V8. |

Many people have done this. What do you think most of the first V8s were? |

| Apparently these are the first guys to do this succesfully with the Hyabusa engine. And it was recent. They are also mass producing these for kit cars. As far as the "Where do you think V8's come from" I don't think that inline 4's were the first idea that anyone came up with either. And V8's were around before bikes were, and bikes started out with tiny engines, it's only recently that they have been able to squeeze such incredible horse power numbers out of these tiny little 4 bangers! So small, high RPM V8's are some what new to the market. Before they were usually large volume engines with low end torque, not compact little screamers with insane amounts of power and high compression. |

I have to give the guy credit, that's for sure. But its nothing you could put in a go-cart or anything. Coolant lines would have to be plummed. As it sits, its just air-cooled. It would overheat way too quickly.
Excelent job non-the-less. |

More than likely the motor is fed by nitro methane and temps would be regulated by the a/f mixture.
just like nitro rc cars. |
