Another project that is just not going to happen. So much time was spent in building this engine!!!! Skat cross drilled crankshaft, Roof/Laurel 310 cam, the list is so looooonnnng. A lot of power and not for the faint at heart. This is configured for a single seat racer if you were wondering about the pedals being clipped down (Trapeze Pedals). Easy change over. Pick up only, $10,000.00, comes with the stand. Email Only to the address provided.

WOW! That's the coolest T motor I've ever seen! If I had an extra 10k I'd buy and park it in my living room!
Nice Nice work.....

I tried. My accountant said that I could afford the engine but not the divorce. Then I cried.

What a beautiful engine. I would have been all over that when I was sourcing an engine for my race car build. So sorry to see you changing directions, I know you must had something extraordinary planned for that engine. Wishing the best for you in your new direction.

Let’s see, average cost, normal rebuild on a complete model T engine 5k-7 plus based on location of builder, you supply the complete engine you ship it or transport it & wait to go pick it up or have it shipped to you OR you keep your original engine & get the Beast @ $7500 now & you pick it up with a substantial engine stand. There is a Forrest Gump quote or two that fits here.
Best John

With that engine I would be going too fast for my old car before I got out of low gear.

Do you know how much horsepower that engine will put out?

Mr. Hank, it should have sold at the original asking price!!! You construct the most awesome "art" I have ever seen!!!

Thanks Walt!
At flywheel from building specs should produce right at 160 Hp @ 4,400 rpm. Yes, that is correct. But the factory T transmission will steal 1/3 of the horse power, 128 pounds rotating is not good.

Congrats to the new owner. In my opinion you got by far the best deal on something T related in 2023! Kinda like buying an all original complete open valve T for $10,000.00! I own one of Hanks built pieces. Incredible workmanship!
In my opinion.
