I been thinking about monkeying about with one of those engines for years. Tried to buy a barn find one out of Nebraska. Asked the guy to pull the engine, put it in a bin and send it to me. Do what he wanted with the rest. He said I was crazy. He hung up on me.

The chambers on the VanTech look like Nitro RC racing plane pipes.
