Default Big aircompressor for downhole air hammer

anyone hacked an old car engine into a big air compressor to use for downhole air hammer drilling? Say 150 CFM, 150 psi.

Seems one could regear the cam to 1:1, then biggest problem would be reconfiguring the 'exhaust' to take 150 psi?

have a few old car engines sitting around...
