I like an old-school American V8 as much as the next guy, but lets give credit where it's due.

The Veyron is an 8.0L Quad-Turbo. I don't know that you can really call that puny cubic inch. Over 1000hp and 920 ftlb and 0-60 under 2.5 seconds. Just put that engine in a Challenger body and I'm sure you'd like it
