Yeah, boeing wouldn't do that for a car... I know a few car nuts that work for boeing and have never mentioned it.. plus, they don't just make airplane engines, they do a lot for the military.

Speaking of firebirds though, at the college I go to for automotive tech. students got a 85 firebird from a junk yard, rebuilt it completley from the ground up.

No turbo/super charger on it.. just a small block chevy motor & it pulled 600HP on the dyno... I'll try and get a video of it sometime. It's the loudest car ive ever heard. I was 30-40 feet away and it idling made my ears ring. The teacher took it down the road to test it after we put a new dis. cap on it & he was about half a mile down the road and we could still hear the car & then he got on it real good and it was like sticking your ear to a muffler on a car.. It's insanely loud.
