I'd like to see someone adaapt one of these engines to a GMC>
A Rolls Royce Merlin, 1650 Cu in 1625 Horsepower, P51 Mustangs were fitted with these engines & had water/alcohol injection for a "war emergency" which boosted HP to over 2000 for a short time, they could catch Germany's twin engine jet fighter with this on, but would start to shuck parts after about 5 minutes.
