Also called "Box Signs". Usually constructed of an aluminum box-style frame 6-9”
in depth with a plastic face. These signs are typically internally illuminated
with fluorescent lamps and installed on a stand, on legs, as part of another
sign configuration or above a storefront.
We need a 16-liter engine to burn 1.33 gallons of gas per minute. That actually makes sense -- the engine in the Dodge Viper is 8.0 liters in displacement and produces 500 hp.
But there's a problem: A 16-liter V-8 engine would be very large. And the pistons would be massive, so there would be no way it could turn at 6,000 rotations per minute (rpm). It might turn at a maximum of 2,000 rpm, meaning that you would need an immense 48-liter engine to generate 1,000 hp. Clearly an engine that big is impossible in a passenger car. So how did Bugatti fit 1,000 horsepower into a passenger car? Let's find out.
