As a car guy, I really appreciate the ode to old school hot rodding. This is hands down awesome!!

[MrOiram]

You actually floored it, awesome! I see too many videos where custom rods are just strolled around without letting the beastly build roar in might

[DigBipper]

THAT THING SOUNDS UNBELIEVABLY GOOD HOLY CRAP!!

[_..-.._..-.._]

This is what I live for. I used to tie two Briggs & Stratton engines together at different crank offsets to make it sound different using a modified lovejoy connector, 360 off it revved like a parallel twin and was 2 stroke sounding, 270 offset gave it a glorious Vtwin sound. I love firing order type customization so much. Also, custom header designs that change the whole attitude of engines using unequal length pipes etc.

That is the most V8 sounding four cylinder I've ever heard

[Porschedriver]

Flat 8 — like a Porsche racing motor!
We need to see more of these!
And that groovy paint and race setup all top notch! 👌🏼💯

[jimcockburn]

Well done, that eight cylinder VW engine is definitely thinking outside the square.

[daxtonclaude]

That has got to be one of the best sounding mechanical masterpieces I have ever heard.

[voidnimbus]

that might just be the greatest sounding engine I've ever heard

[baldeagle]

That is out of site !!! Nose bleed high, cool paint, rad interior. 10 out of 10....

[kenegerton]

Wait.... NO V8 CRATE ENGINE AND AUTOMATIC TRANNY ??!!
This guy must have real talent.
Unlike all the custom car builder on all the TV shows.
Very cool build here !

I got to see this car and talk to the owner at the GNRS 2 years ago, so amazing and the owner was pretty nice.

[brianklanke]

Sounds really nice and different. Glad you got on it.

[daniel-iszf]

I get that engine is awsome but that paint job deserves a world of credit

[iamgriff]

That’s something I would hear on Woodward Ave here in Detroit! Man that’s pretty legit! You guys need to bring it to the Woodward Dream Cruise.

[JETZcorp]

I like the screens in the stacks. They'll stop birds and river rocks from getting sucked in, but something really microscopic like bugs and sand will just go right in.

[Vladi]

Good gravy... I was blown away at how good that thing sounded, on the throttle!

[jasonwaltrowski]

This car is so sick, looks awesome and sounds amazing with those two engines

[doczspec]

Whoa! Was not expecting that! 🎉 That thing took off, and its Air Cooled. I had to count. One two, one cover. Etc. The extreme long tubes makes Torque. And she sounds very happy

[noahbolt]

I could replay the end of the video 500 times. That thing on the throttle sounds amazing!
