The engine is a 27 litre tank engine Grin
 
It is like a Spitfire engine but with out the supercharger.
 
A guy has just put one in a SD1 Rover Shocked

Here's a slightly more feasable idea  Shocked Its a mk2 Granada from the Norwegian Granada club, but just imagine that in the engine bay of our scorps  Grin  
 

 
Apparently it's a 11.4litre Twin Turbo Ford Motorsport BOSS engine and develops about 1300 bhp, and thats without the 3-400 bhp shot of NOS!! With 1100-1200 lb ft of torque it'd also be a good car for towing with Wink  
 
Its even road legal!

I've seen it in a couple of Norwegian motor magazines plus a few sites on the web, and caught a few interviews with the owner. That is one CRAZY car. Wonder what an engine like that would have done to a Scorp  Grin
