  • Very Nice!!! How Much?

    www.simon-stubbs.co.uk for more info on My Rover 3.5 V8 powered Mini.

    After seeing that Mini, I'm looking at my Festy with some impure thoughts lol!!!!

    Also very cool:
    How long before these are made for minature top fuelers.
    The left lane? Are you crazy!!! I never drive in the left lane...It's full of freaks driving the wrong way and charging right at you!!!

    That's a pretty mean sounding mini. Bet it's fun. I'd like to know the displacement and hp on that mini V8 in the 2nd vid. It would be cool to have one on a motorcycle.

          Blech. I don't like a boss hoss. Crazy though the 350 ci is the mid sized engine! The 502 is the big one. the 2 wheel models are 2 speed automatics. The 3 wheelers are 3 speed auto. They are just overkill. Especially when a busa or even my Vmax will outrun them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fI_Gv...eature=related
          Of course there's always a tomahawk.

              Carbon,

              I agree about the BH being overkill, and they're butt ugly.... but.... how many chances do you get to ride a V8 engine bareback!?

              The idea I have is for a much more refined, small displacement v8 bike, similar to the v8 prototype Laverda built back in the early 90's. I think it was around 1.5L

                Yeah I agree with wanting to bare back a big block! And a 1.5 v8 sounds awesome!!

                      655 horses!?! on what 12" of rubber? That is just too much. Have you seen the 57 chevy trike boss hoss? I saw one here in town. They are worth looking at and like FB71 said. I'd like to at least try one out.
