  • stewart took the orgional 51 plans and shrunk them down to 75% scale so it is as close to the p51s as possible. war birds of america reconized it as a 51

  • most of the s 51s have a 502 in them with a king air prop and a few had cutler fuel injectors. kinda want the weight of a cast engine. for looks the cut down exhaust headers have 2 dummy ports on each side to give it the v 12 look

  • Id venture a guess this is an all aluminum big block, and alot of compression to generate 600 horses at 4500 rpm. Prop speed cut in half via a gear box.

  • @thedriver97 who modify the engine please can i help me or it hasn´t modifications??

  • what are the modifictions of the big block of chevy that allow's fly??? thanks to answer

  • Damn, makes me wish I hadn't tore up my 454 in my junkie old camaro. Bought it for $600, but had some oil leak or was eating oil (rings maybe), locked up the engine on a long trip. I would so tear it out of that camaro and put it in an airplane, but god, a 454 is a heavy heavy engine.... this guy must of turbocharged it or something.

  • Actually, you can get a Full Scale P-51D from Murdo Cameron and sons Aircraft. It would be an all composite air plane and would have an Allison V-12 in it. Check out his website, he has some great info there. Don

  • @brettt777 I beleive it has a 454 Chevy big block.

  • the grin on his face at :06 says it all.

  • Okay so what does it cost to get into one of these if you started from scratch? And if you can get a 75% scale Mustang kit plane, can you get a full scale "kit" Mustang for less than the $1.5M+ that a real one costs?
