Can you say torque monster?

Notice the spark leakage on the #1 spark plug.

Interesting! I’m not sure if this is being built for a practical purpose, but an impressive amount of effort was put into building that. Note that the actual 300 is essentially square, 4.00” x 3.98” and the model is slightly sub-square at 3/4” x 7/8”. Not many engines are sub square that I know of except military vehicles and some Jeeps.

That's cool!

And that #1 plug is either broken or not torqued down properly.  You can hear it in the exhaust - it is missing.

But I'm impressed!

Imagine if that was an actual 300 with spark leak and a leaky fuel line.

Guess it would be a bit worse if it was in the #2 cylinder, but still.
