Pffffffft. V10? V10s are for those who need two extra cylinders to make up for their inadequacies.
I prefer, the V8. 8.19L. Sort of like the 426 Hemi. 2 valves per cylinder. Aluminum billets. No water jackets please, I'll be done before I need a water jacket! Supercharger, but I'm fine with the basic Roots type with ballistic blankets. Single camshaft. Steel crankshafts. Titanium intake valves. 1:1 on fuel to air ratio with a 7:1 compression ratio.
60 gallons to the mile is fine by me, but I want 85–90% nitromethane with 10–15% methanol.
That should about do it. I'm no V10. I'm an 8,000 HP, supercharged, nitromethane-fueled motor...
AND when I get going, and when my grammar and proofreading kicks in to high gear, and I hit that send button without checking the autocorrect function... pure... magic...
Wait.
Screw that. V-6 is fine. Ecoboost? What is that anyways? Just give me a straight V-6.
and thank you wikipedia for all of your help understanding how a funny car engine is made. I still don't understand what I just said and that may be evident to you car guys, but, because. The end.
