@TURBORETARD9000 @jeffcliff @Willow@stranger.social I do have fond memories of a moped being resurrected, but i struggle to watch that many minutes for a car.

So, good thing fixing stuff, but hard to watch that long.

@admitsWrongIfProven @jeffcliff @Willow :akko_giggle: He put a 212cc Predator engine (hardware store brand retail engines, subsidiary of Honda iirc) in a Honda Insight and got it to go just a hair under 100kmh

@TURBORETARD9000 @jeffcliff @Willow@stranger.social Wait, 100 km/h is like base highway speed? Is this important because predator engine = like predators are not very efficient?

@Willow @admitsWrongIfProven @jeffcliff Also made a 3cyl Kubota diesel Renault and got it to 110kmh (the same engine used for large garden tractors / small full-size)
Though now he's moved it to the Honda

@TURBORETARD9000 @jeffcliff @Willow@stranger.social So if i understand correctly this is about getting efficiency where none was intended in small places to ignore the total failure in our society?

I can't say that was wrong, i do that too, i just lack the flavor. You know, hate the game?

Don't get me started about overkill. Really, you don't want to.

@admitsWrongIfProven @jeffcliff @Willow I think he's just doing it because it's silly making these itty engines move an entire car (albeit a VERY light car)
That being said, he is getting 17-40 km/L

@TURBORETARD9000 @jeffcliff @Willow@stranger.social I am not criticizing you, am am merely stating my limitations.
