I think the V8 Hyabusa Engine They weigh 250 lbs and have around 400 hp. If we were talking about something commonly available, an LS7 would be nice.

I'd love to get my hands on an F1 engine used on the Saturn 5 rockets!

Wright double cyclone. Best engine for minivans (assuming you can fit it in the body).

You're thinking small. P&W R4430. 36 cylinders, compound supercharging, 3,000+ HP.

So there's actually two "double cyclones" - a twin cyclone making about 1600hp and a duplex cyclone making about 3500hp.
