Hypothetical 2 stroke v-8
Hi, I've been kicking around an idea for a while and would like to get some feedback to see if it is actually possible or not. My idea is to make a scale 2-stroke v-8 that would look (and hopefully perform) like a top fuel dragster engine. The engine would use comercially available pistons cylinders and rods from let's say a .21 os buggy engine. It would have a supercharger to pressurize the intake tract, avoiding any scavinging from the crankcase -- ie the bottom end would act like a 4 stroke engine with either dry sump or wet sump lubrication. The major things to build would be cylinder block, crankshaft, and supercharger. I know people have built all of these seperatley, but I have not. I figure the hardest thing to make would be the supercharger. It would have to be a positive displacement either a "roots" style or a "twin screw" style. I would imagine that the twin screw style would be better suited due to it's efficiency advantage over the roots style. Has anyone evermade a scale supercharger that was efficient? How much boost could be expected? Am I crazy for even thinking of such a beast?
