I saw something like this at Harbor Freight, but they were already assembled. Pretty cool, however.

These little things are cool, but cost as much as a full size engine.

No, there are guys who build engines not much bigger than that, that actually run and have superchargers on them. Pretty insane.

That'd be cool to find a model car that the engine would fit in and put it in there. It does look kind of like a pain in the butt but it looks pretty sweet on the other hand.
