Put some wheels on the engine and let it run till its out of fuel

Imagine the power to weight ratio!

720hp moving the mass of the engine and a subframe with wheels

Your wrong. My grandmother likes them.

I'd put one in an El Camino or a 68 Camaro/Firebird. Or my Blazer...

I'm thinking more along the lines of a black Pantera. I think it would fit.

Yeah a small block ford and a big block chevy there close to the same size right? It would be cramped.

Fastest way to move a wardrobe, short of using a steam catapult!

But then again, you'd only use it to drag race ricers from the lights... just for a giggle

I'm thinking Factory Five Racing Cobra replica . They don't come with an engine anyway, and why go to all the trouble of having to remove a pre-existing motor?
