The Dangers of Hellcat-Swapping Side-by-Sides

A group of enthusiasts at SXSBlog have created a side-by-side vehicle with an 800-horsepower 6.2-liter supercharged V8 engine from a Dodge Demon. The engine is crammed into the rear seats, with a Powerglide gearbox and an S550 Mustang rear subframe. Custom fabrication was necessary to make the swap possible, including a custom gear linkage and 3D-printed gates for the shifter. The machine is designed for burnouts and is estimated to reach rear wheel speeds of 170 mph. While the build is still in progress, it is already being hailed as one of the craziest creations on four wheels.
