V8 to a V4

I wasn't sure if this was where to post this but here we go. I was reading the post about cutting cylinders on the fly with a switch. It reminded me of an article in my dad's Mother Earth News when I was in high school. It was an article on how to convert a V8 to a V4 by removing some parts. It is kind of a drastic move but, as the article mentions, if the 4 cylinders you are using get "tired", you can put the other 4 back in operation. At least it makes for an interesting read.
