What happens when you stick a 27 litre (yes 27 litre, not a typo) tank engine into a car? Well I would imagine a fire breathing monster but 1550 FT/LBS of torque at 1600 RPMS is close enough. Charlie Broomfield from Practical Performance Car created the car with the sole purpose of going 200 MPH. Charlie took a Rover SD1 (Wiki link here) and shoved a 27 litre V12 Merlin tank engine into it. The car was fabricated from sampling several manufactures parts such as Ford and Jaguar.
