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.

I think the guy builds 'em to sell- Something on the order of $4-5K apiece..... But yeah, I'd LOVE to have one..

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.
