    Yeah, there are a ton of options though. That was just the first one. I typically don't order from AE unless it's for RC or something else disposable, like lathe tooling.

    Never ordered from there, myself

    If you want another rabbit hole, look up the Chrysler A57 Multibank engine

    He had items I required and had taken his time arriving to my desired location of procurement.

    For more efficient screwing around the corner?

    Congratulations for the successful transaction in that case

    Efficiency is key when screwing at angles

    Dude, that's like some sort of meta turbine monstrosity. I like it.

    What do you think Wankel engines setup in the same way would sound like? I imagine whatever a tear in space time sounds like would be similar.

    It would probably sound like an exponential lack of torque

    I also think the Leyland L60 from the Chieftain series sounds pretty damn cool, despite essentially be a giant turd and the key weak point of that platform. 19-liter two stroke opposed piston diesel/multifuel engine

    That thing howls! On paper it sounds like a magic bullet solution. I guess the good idea fairy has a tank hobby too.

    The A57 sounded relatively mild from what I could tell. Especially considering the design. I guess it was in a smaller tank though. I have if that matters lol

    Resoundingly British magic bullet solution

    A57 just sounds like five Chrysler inline sixes. I love it just from the necessity and thought process that brought it into existence. And it was one case of a successful Good Idea™

    Similarly, the Australian Sentinel was powered by three Cadillac V8s, but that wasn't it's most defining, er... "feature"

    Who wants a floppy dong?

    The one i linked still has a flexy tip. I just figured it was less likely to break / leak down the road and if the plastic bits broke i could chuck them in the trash and still use the rest

    It's amazing how far engine technology has come in 150 years. From non-existence, to monstrosities that barely put out any HP to small blocks that are blown to over 1000HP. I mean look at the nissan DIG-T. Its light enough to carry like a small child and is still capable of almost 300 Crank HP.

    Can I get a garage and driveway that large and flat! :drool: Think of all the workspace! I might actually spend more time in the garage if I had room to work on stuff.
    Side note, if anyone needs any kitchenware(silverware, plates, bowls, etc), chess set, small animal trap, or any of the OEM takeoffs can come collect them from my garage tomorrow :rofl:
    There's more stuff in there that needs to leave my sight too but I don't remember off the top of my head.

    Yeah, I think they're stamped and riveted aluminum. People will shell out big bucks for shiny aluminum stuff because it's super light. This has the added benefit for making specialty products for hobbies more available, but they sell at a premium because they are mostly cottage industries with lower production runs. Aluminum is king for cost-weight-strength analysis.

    The thing that blows my mind is the ridiculous cost of those molded coolers. Those things are unreasonably expensive for what they are.

    Don't even get me started on the bed stiffeners. I'm still baffled by the cost of those.

    Yeah, I hear that. The right 2 definitely could have been taller and the left one to be used for smaller vehicles or tractors or whatnot.
