Yep.

That is amazing.....how do you see around the motor to drive? I would need a booster seat and a sunroof.

That would be so cool to build a giant street rod around- like a Blastolene.

The Seattle based Hydroplane and Raceboat Museum runs a few restored merlin powered hydro's. They test run them near my house on the Columbia River, its awesome. :D

look at the exhaust and intake on that motor..some serious potential, if he hasnt even had a set of headers built for it..I doubt the heads have been worked etc...
