It looks and drives like a Jeep, but it also swims like a boat. The Gator from WaterCar looks a lot like a Jeep, but has the ability to not only float but haul ass in the water. The Gator accepts a wide variety of engines-from Volkswagen to Corvette, and likely, even a Jeep engine-it can be driven to the boat ramp, launch itself, and tool around in the water like it was meant to be there.

If you've done some work to your engine, you're probably ready for some higher-flow aftermarket injectors. The problem is many aftermarket high-flow injectors only flow well when they are wide open, and the engine requires a lot of fuel. At part-throttle or low-load conditions, they might not do so well. Not the Edge Jammer Gas Injectors. They feature not only wide-open flow but exceptional idle, off idle, and part-throttle response.
