Don't know if any of you have heard about this or not, but apparently Hartley Enterprises has developed a 2.6L V8 engine derived from a Hayabusa motorcycle engine. When they put it on the dyno their final results were 306.2rwhp @9500rpm and 191 ft-lbs torque.
The engine sounds incredible! I'd love to put one in my Sonett, although it would probably twist the frame.


Check it out.....

Makes me think about a Formula 1 motor...
2.4L V-8 with a 19,000rpm redline...
...and about 750 hp...
Cool concept, though, for sure!

 

It only uses the busa's heads and pistons. They had to make their own block and crank.

 

haha i didnt doubt ya just didnt see it on the one or two pages I looked at.

 

well it definitely sounds good
