Yeah, well...there's this thing called "excessive charge heating" that happens when you supercharge your supercharger with no intercooling or aftercooling or something like water or methanol injection, and instead of more power, all you get is pre-ignition, destructive detonation and holes blown in piston crowns.

Cool, huh?

How about this.

Watch it run.

That's nuts. Both of them.

Really?

I have to say, though, the nose on that rig is a very handsome piece. Reminds me of the Brewster-bodied Fords.

I have to agree here...looks like the pistons will get burnt. Cool to look at though.
