Speaking on scale... I don't have the 8448, but I am working on a MOC using
the 8448 wheels and 2x2 cylinder/pistons as in the IndyStorm and others (I
believe the same as the 8448 from pictures I've seen).

Isn't the finished engine a bit out of scale with itself?  The pistons seem
way too large to be running off one cam... my engine is about 12w X 10l X 7h
using 2 separate cams...  Yes this make the planned car (still early in
development) quite a bit larger that the 8448, but it seems more to scale to
me at least... any thoughts?

it *won't* tow your supercar (either 8448 or 8880)... the scale is incorrect..
