Put this engine in your car. It looks pretty big, though, you might have to convert your Civic to a 2 seater because the rest of the car is taken up by the engine.

Also note that this engine weighs about as much as three of our cars, but at 1200hp who cares I figure if a 127hp engine can move our 2400 (?) lb cars, then 10 times that much power can move something three times as heavy.

no replacement for displacement =) ... but that engine would be sooooo much sweeter if it was gas, or even better, alcohol, not diesel.... thousands and thousands of horsepower....

"A great possibility for your pulling tractor, monster truck, generator genset, pump, work boat, towboat, tugboat, marine, or heavy equipment application"

so does our civics fall into the monster truck or pulling tractor category?
