Michey Thompson's land speed record car from the 50' or 60's with four Pontiac v8's comes to mind. I can envision such a car with about 6 or 8 of these engines and a few spares.

Interesting.

Do we all need to start stockpiling motors before they are all gone?

Should I ditch some of my MRE's to make room in the shelter for them?

Hmm...

Looking forward to hearing what the dealio is.

Since he didn't ask or care about compression I'm guessing they won't be running ( at least in their current configuration)

Were they all the same model?

Maybe he's building coffee tables or bbq's.
