It's a show twuck. The frame has been stretched 80" just to get the engine in.
Now...I gotta let ya in on a widdle sekwet. There are only 4 blowers actually working on this turd, of the 12 that are on it. The rest, while the impellers do spin, are gutless, and just for looks. The "intake" for those dummy huffers weighs 1000 pounds by itself.... The intake and dummies sit on top of the actual blowers. If ya take all that crap off, the engine, by itself, isn't NEARLY as impressive looking. It looks like it was just pulled out of the hull of a tug boat.
I gotta give the guy credit, tho....it IS impressive, and it DOES run. I would rather have the $$$$ he spent on it, tho....

Joel, thanks for posting! I've actually seen this video before, but now my wife finally believes me when I tell her I'm not the only person in the world looking at vids of screamin' jimmies on YouTube!
