looks like it might make a good Indy Car engine, high rpm high Hp but low torque. est. over 1000hp with 3 turbo setup. the timing chain guides kinda make me wonder though, what happens as they wear? will the timing change of will the chain break? that could be very bad |

You know, ive heard so much good thing about Atom, their cars are like go-carts for the street with a s/c 4cyl. I can just imagine this W9 in it... Very cool and good find. The timing chain set-up is cool, but doesnt look too efficient.
