Awww, It just ain't cool unless its got a big block or a small block in it. The 55 has always been my favorite car. That bad bellybutton front grill is like a mean face and the awesome little tail lights are way cool. I even love the dash. It's kind of like both front passengers have their own little cockpit. I love all 55's but they kind of take the cool out of it getting so crazy with the fiberglass all over and the crazy engine. Its still a 55 though.
Next thing you know somebody will get the bright idea to use a Honda or a Toyota engine in a Nascar ride. :rofl

Bad news, guy put a supra motor in a 69 Camaro here, he got flamed bad.

Pretty crazy, but why chop up a real 55 when he could have just used the repoduction body. I mean it's not like the "real" body adds anything to the car anymore. They totally gutted it.
As a side note, I have a 1955 Chevy truck that is in the middle of a frame off rebuild. I had a all aluminum jaguar v12 that I was going to put in it just to be different. The engine looked bad aruse but seemed like they were a lot of problems so I ended up selling it.
The engine looked like this one..

It’s a cool looking car but the whole time I watched the video I couldn’t stop thinking, “What a waste of a good Merlin. It should be dragging a spit or pony around the sky…not sitting parked in some garage.” :( :furious
-
They could put the Merlin in one of these.
