Mike Burroughs stands with his Ferrari F140 engine

The New King of YouTube Builds is the StanceWorks Ferrari F40 Evo

Mike Burroughs has been going bigger and bigger with his project cars. We’ve seen him graduate from rusty old BMWs to tackling a Honda-swapped Ferrari 308. While I still want to see his Audi project rolling around, his latest build effort is immense. Mike has found original Ferrari F40 body panels, and he’s going to build a tube chassis to create his vision of what he’s referring to as an F40 Evo.

To take things a step further, Mike isn’t going small potatoes with the powertrain on this one, either. Burroughs and his crew flew to Germany to procure one hell of a mill: a Ferrari F140. That would be the 6.5-liter V12 variant that once cranked out 800 horsepower under the skin of the 812 Superfast.

It revs to 9,000 rpm, looks stunning, and is the perfect power producer for this project. Still, Mike isn’t done there. He’s working with Holinger to produce what’s essentially a racing gearbox for this thing. And unlike me and my own projects, Mike actually finishes what he starts so I can’t wait to see and hear this thing ripping around.
