But if you really want to, he'll use BMW engines or old pushrod big blocks. Aluminum 426 Hemi anyone?

Mustang engine would do well in there.

It's actually designed for the Coyote engine or the 5.4 SC, but anything can be adapted.

Looks like machine guns should be popping out of the hood.[idea]

Lulz death race car. At first i think it has a close resemblance to the viper. No traction control, 335s in the rear, sidepipes. Just buy a viper and have a better designed car. Cool kit car tho

I want it with a cummins turbo diesel and a proper geared rear end to make up for it being "slow".

Only so I could smoke ricers and things. Imagine pulling up to that thing and be left in a cloud of black smoke :P

There are a series of videos on youtube of this guy building this in his garage, Idk if he ever got around to actually finishing it. Its an amazing looking car imo

I'd order it with the trd v8 (NASCAR engine)

There's a military aviation museum nearby that has a spare 'Mustang' engine with no plane to put it in... Wonder if it'd fit...

Imagine pulling up to a light in THAT.

I'd rather have the P51 it was supposed to be in although I've always been partial to the P-38 which was what Richard Bong used.

No thanks.
I like the 'normal' Miata better.

Neat 1-off but not for me.
