    Fantastic video diving into the intricacies of legendary engines! Makes you realize how much engineering marvel is packed under the hood. But can we take a moment to appreciate how engine technology has come full circle? We've gone from the 426 Hemi being iconic to the Valkyrie revving up to 11,000 RPMs, and now Konigsegg's 2-liter inline 3 TFG with 600 bhp!

      In the name of Allah, I invite you to worship Allah alone, so say: I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and I bear witness that Muhammad the Messenger of Allah. This is how I entered Islam. Read about our Prophet Muhammad, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, whom Allah sent as a mercy to the worlds, to keep us away from Hell and admit us to Paradise by following him, Allah willing, for he is one of Allah prophets at the end of time. .. .. And the Seal of the Prophets and Messengers .............. .........

Also, 70's era Toyota Land Cruisers are not present. The one I used to drive was used for field research in very challenging conditions.
