China Gal, Too Slow
Okay, I rode my China powered bike for a few weeks and had fun but for an old hot rodder it just didn't have the suds to really grab me so I had to do something. I had this nice little injected small block sitting on a stand in my garage and...well...it was just too much of a temptation.
I've got the rack mount all worked out now all I need is some advice on how to get roughly 360 horsepower to that rear wheel. Anyone have any suggestions?

Well if you had a rear view mirror I'd say all you need is some of those fuzzy dice!

Re: China Gal, Too Slow
Trailer pusher for shure. And a Ford rear.
Radiator may need to be mounted quite high though to clear the obstruction from you and your bike.... wait.
It should be okay.

Re: China Gal, Too Slow
I would go with a straight up propeller on that one. Might be a lot of torque for a 415 chain. Could always go belt drive though.
(Snork, snork. Can I copy that pic? Pretty awesome)
