Build Your Own SUPERCAR

[@ForkinCrazy]

The 917 did not have a "V" motor. It had a horizontally opposed 12, or "flat 12". And for power for a 917 kit, I would go with an air cooled 6 with a turbo.

[@matiasfpm]

Yup. Still, that kind of engine is impossible to get one.

[@futten3230]

actually it did its a 180 V12 engine the difference between a boxer 12 and a 180 degree v12 is the configuration on the crankshaft so TECHNICALLY its a V12 even though its well V shaped

[@ademoncalledlars7699]

THANK YOU

[@highoctanegames]

I heard to even replicate that engine costs more than a brand new Lamborghini A modern porsche twin turbo engine will be lighter and produce similar power while still being a Porsche engine

[@driverjamescopeland]

Wrong. "Flat" and "180° V" are interchangeable... meaning, either is correct. "Flat" can be used to describe any engine with horizontal cylinders, including those with just a single bank of cylinders. Any "flat" engine with two cylinders banks in same crankcase is also a "180° V", provided they share the same central crankshaft.

Starting with the K1 Attack was an epic choice. I'm glad it's finally seeing some success in its 4th attempt... but the debut concept looked a bit better.

[@generally_good_guy]

In the late 80's I foolishly bought a used Fiberfab Avenger. It was a horrible build to start and truly "only just average" build after I took it apart and rebuilt it. It was an excellent learning experience for me, but it does show that you only get what you put in. Cheap parts and beginner fabricating begat a cheap car that I sold for a 50% loss. However, I will soon approach my next component car with excellent fabricating skill and much deeper pockets. Great video Brad!

So where was the SL-C or the GT40?

[@christiansantiago3007]

Really like the Race Car Replica GT40 and GT-R. A bit on the pricey side at around 50k to 60k less transaxle and engine. Would love to build it with a 351 windsor punched out and stroked to 400ci or better. Then do coil near plug and EFI with individual throttle bodies. I won't see this build done for a good long while. A man can always dream of hanging with Ferraris and Lamborghinis in a cobbled together monstrosity based off a 60s design known for being less than stable at high speed.

[@AlanRoehrich9651]

If you're going to buy something from RCR, they were producing a Lola T70 MkIIIb for a while, at a relatively affordable price. And it had options to buy everything necessary to assemble the car, except for an engine. The great thing is that the real Lola T70 was most commonly powered by a Chevrolet small block V8, although there were a few built with a big block, and even fewer built with other engines, even the Aston Martin V8. The RCR Lola T70 was built to original blueprints. You could technically build a heritage racing legal car from the RCR kit.

[@dedeborya9015]

I 'carted' a 79 Fiat X-19. I stripped all the metal off of it, the bumpers, the top, the pop up head lights - primed all the take offs, sold them.... mounted a Sawz-all Manx fiberglass dune buggy on it. I fitted Bigs & Littles and terrorized the dunes with it. so much damn fun. Sold it for 10K .... I regret doing that.

[@MrSirjud01]

Would love to build any of the Factory 5 cars. But that Goblin...first Ive seen it and I love it!

[@RebelOakley]

Bought a running 04 Crown Victoria P71. Stripped it down to the frame, relocated the engine back 14 inches and dropped the center on the frame 3 inches. Mounted some Pontiac Bucket seats, and now need to figure out the firewall before building the cage and body.

I would buy and builds a kit Maxx Budget $30K to build myself. Though have the room, I do have the tool just need the engine lift and car hoist. work too many hours, and would prefer a Brand new Mach 1 with a Warranty and option for extended warranty. Requirements on Purchase are as follows: 1. 6 speed manual transmission 2. naturally aspirated, or super charged.... Manufacture's mount Turbos too close to the engine without a heat shield between them., causing each other to fail 3. Next purchase will be all white car with Performance Pack or the next Mustang Gen 2023 if Performance Pack 2 is not available the BOSS 302 will be my next purchase.... with 6 speed manual transmission. Thanks for showing more kit options though. 👦🏻👍🏻🏎🏁
