Hellcat!

[Cross127]

At my fathers shop we have an engine from a WWII Hellcat that runs. The only thing is NO one has bought it or taken it. He went to a museum and they said they can't take it, forgot reason why but anyways. Does anybody know someone that will want a Hellcat engine or even a museum.

Personally, I'd just keep it.

Ummm a plane would be a start. It's got 2200 hp.

No clue. Let me guess you got a rolling chasis for a tracker pull and waiting for that 3000 hp engine to go on it lol.

I don't know how you are going to get it to indiana. It is 16 cyclinders and is about the size of an S-10 pickup truck.

NICE lol. You know your sig is probably right. Even if it's like a weed wacker engine you will still probably supercharge it and put it in a go cart.
