Some of it is First gen camero lol, the rest i have no clue! But the engine appears to be some sort of hemi (just going of the tappet covers), also say its in early stages as the block is a dummy.

Miura-san's S13, Heavily inspired by Stockcar racing and built as a Drift car, now a daily driver. Also captures bosozoku influance as the owner spent his teens as true bosozoku terrorising the streets in a motorcycle gang (sorta the japanese take on british punk culture).

Ah, no...

Found some info on it

Quote:
Powered by a 540 cubic inch Sonny Leonard hemi-headed big block Chevy assembled by Fast Times Motorworks, the focal point is the pair of 88mm turbos on the front of the engine. No horsepower ratings are public, but driver Nick Scavo points out that it should crack 2500 horsepower without minimal boost!

Not sure if this has being posted yet or not.....



From the builder's own mouth:

"Just thought I'd share some before and after pictures of my Ford GAA tank engine. All aluminum 1100 cubic inch V8 used in WWII Sherman Tanks. These were gas burners rated at 500 HP and 1050 Ft. Lbs. of torque for military service, but are capable of much much more using mostly stock parts. They feature a 60 degree vee, 5.4 bore x 6.0 stroke, 180 degree factory billet cranks, pent roof combustion chambers, shaft driven DOHC's, 4 valves per cylinder, and dual mags. They are pretty high tech. engines, especially considering they were built in the early 40's. I've been working on getting one of mine going for the last couple of years, and should be cranking it within a week or so. It's setting in my 70 Mustang right now which I plan on taking on short cruises when finished, 24 gallons of alcohol wont go very far. It is bolted to a heavily modified Powerglide right now. Wilcap ( Pat McGuire ) built the adapter and flexplate for me."

It's been around for a while (at least 2 years), i don't think there are any finished photos yet?

Sorta like Rod Hadfields Merlin powered '55. Not practical for anything, but an amazing display of guts and craftmens ship.
