Are you going to put it in an R/c car or something? I've seen them somewhere. Just can't remember where right now.

Check with a local hobby shops that does a lot of Radio Control stuff. Parma markets a bagged kit in, I believe 1/10th scale or thereabouts, of a blown Chrysler Hemi. It's quite a nice model, originally made by MPC as "Don Garlits 426 Hemi Dragster Engine".

Hope that helps.

Revell used to make a series of 1/8 ish engine kits, they wer in the 'visible' range of kits they reissue from time to time.
