@MarkM maybe you'll like to try an ex-jet engine and see what it does (if it doesn't dry up your tiny fuel tank too quickly first) but..who knows!

A RATO unit would be better as it doesn't have to take time to spin up like a turbine. It won't last long but it would be one hell of a ride.

I had a bad cold advance thermostat, shorting out intermittently, causing the pump to advance. It accelerated the truck, but not like a rocket. Definitely a strange feeling though. Disconnect the cold advance wire on your pump, and see if the problem goes away.
