I dont think they make a ton of power but it will definately look cool!

how about a 534 ford industrial motor, they are huge, this is one car in my opinion that would benefit by putting those 26 inch rims on it, they would be the correct size for this car,

both sound like good ideas, but alot has to do with what I can get cheep. when I was looking for rims, I needed 5 on 5 1/2 ford, and looked on alot of web sites for 19s or bigger, but they were alot more than I had the money for, and I found these 12x15s on craigs list for a little over $100, so I got them. I found this v12 Jaguar motor, and it's only $300 complete...and $100 for the trans. I think I might get it just because it's different. Its pretty light compared to the bigger motors too, I'm thinking. I think headers with 6 pipes on each side will be cool too.......and it says "Jaguar" on the covers.... and it's shiney....lol

Here's a picture of a Jaguar V-12 in a rat rod. Not a good picture, but it might give you an idea of what they look like.
