Jet car on junk yard wars
« on: June 06, 2006, 02:09:18 AM »
Does anyone remember the episode of Junk Yard wars when they built jet powered cars? One group took a V8 block, ran a junked turbine compressor section, then hooked up a spray bar behind it for an afterburner. I think it was called a thermojet since it wasn't a pure jet at all.

The other car took a turbo from a V12 diesel and ran the thing with an afterburner off propane.

Anyway, it was a cool episode. Anyone know where to get it?
