I hope you are planning on bringing it to meets, you could go up to someone and tell them about your 720 "small blocks". I'd pay good money to see their face reaction.

two 401 blocks and a couple of K1 4" stroke cramks would be a fun project.
But I feel that a hobbed rear crank snout would be required.
the potential for a unsupercharged 1200 hp is there.

You would just need something other than a motor home to drop it in.
Maybe a long nosed Gremlin?

I bet I could yank the front wheels in my motorhome with that.
I'd have to run 4 slicks.

I have a new thought now. I have a 1970 .030 over block that I blew up a flywheel on years ago. The build had about 500 miles on it then it chopped off the back end where the trans bolts up to. I'm going to machine the rear down and work on a more two blocks tight together V16.

No but my wife did.
As soon as moondoggy can figure out how he has 13 dyno pulls to put on youtube. The engine sounds vicious.
