1/6th scale 327 V-8

Designed for use in Shriners' cars perhaps? Anyway, although it sounds like a two-stroke, another comment says that the photos of it on the website shows it in the various stages of disassembly and that it's clearly a four-stroker.

Ay carumba, for that price I'll stick with the full-size version. Or better yet (to me), the 1.6 in the early model Mercury Lynx. As for a MoPar engine, I like the 225 "leaning tower of power" best. Slow maybe, but cool sound and dang near indestructible.

I hadn't noticed that! I think it's supposed to be spelled Mehoff though.
