That was pretty cool & wild to see it fire off. Put I just could not even think about turning it over by hand. OUCH if it ever kicked back on you.

12 sparklers, 2 tiny single barrels. 150hp sounds high to me. Cool looking engine though.

He slowly cranked until the engine suddenly fired. I imagine it winds to a set torque then let's go to spin the engine and kick the handle out of the way.

I saw that too. I doubt if you could turn that thing over under compression. I can't turn he Dodge over with a standard 1/2"breaker bar unless I pull the spark plugs. I'd like to see it in person.

I love it! There's no substitute for cubic inches! Well, maybe there is but it's sissy stuff.

How the heck do you see the road?
...well I guess you just don't worry about that when you can run anything down that's in your way...
