:oldcougar:
put a little slick50 in it and lets see how fast we can spin it:evilgrin:
very cool though
I watched that about 5 times. That is freakin' cool. I love the low RPM "idle" sound - sounds like a top fuel engine
Of course if I built it I'd have to find out what the redline is... the hard way... :D
That's what I'm sayin...it's just legos, right??
just think...blow your engine up..and snap it back together, haha :hick:
wow!, I need to go to the attic and dig out my expert sets!!
I bet it makes more power than my 3.8 :mullet:
lol i wonder if he could make a 5.0 version id rather pay for compressed air than gas lol
I found a whole forum once dedicated to building real engines out of legos...they had some awesome shiznit, including full bodied cars that were propelled by those engines.
I got like most of the ford powered and Muscle cars and Random supercars hot wheels in the last 4 years or so but i forgot all about how cool Legos can be if you got the time to build stuff out of them.
That is awesome! Legos have seemed to go by the wayside in the past years. I remember about 10-15 years ago, store aisles were packed with different Lego sets.
