It's not Koeniggsegg powered - just uses the same modular Ford 4.6 V8 (in his instance the DOHC Cobra) engine that Koeniggsegg used to build up their engines from

Still, madness all the same

Balls! Click me fixed

Also just realised the thread dates back to 2008.. so I'm expecting the 'Pearoast' comments, I did search though.

I can see the amount of engineering and work thats gone into it but i still cant help to think thats one terrible waste of an engine like that

GingerNinja1989 · 28 Mar 2009 at 13:46

Is that real!?!

If it is, then :eek:

MeAnBoY · 28 Mar 2009 at 13:56

Absolute mentalist. Obviously has lots of money and the skill to go with it. Great stuff.

Clarkey · 28 Mar 2009 at 14:28

I didn't bother to read the whole thread but 1700hp is nuts, this is going to be a pure drag car with wrinkle-walls and such yes?

Awesome work

Love the "zzz...zzz" sleeper plate.

Moeks · 28 Mar 2009 at 17:36

One of the rockers has a yellow sticker with "CCX" on it.
Doesn't this mean the engine is actually from a Koeniggsegg?

That is actually mental, some peoples skills are just exceptional.

Berger · 28 Mar 2009 at 19:12

More power at idle than I have peak power is just silly!

It uses the Koeniggsegg modified Ford block, rest of the engine is custom.

PinkFloyd · 28 Mar 2009 at 19:19

Lol 2300bhp. Can you imagine trying to get that sort of power down on the road.

mjt · 28 Mar 2009 at 19:27

yeah, i was wondering why there was 'koeniggseg' in the title, as it's a ford V8..
