I put one of them in a 57 Nomad ,What are you going to put it in.

 

[fieldsken1]

i am putting it in my fj40, the motor i had was no good

 

[Flash1034]

That's pretty big and heavy for a 40 IMHO.

[Martian]

Big sort of makes up for the heavy?

At that much I'd be looking at a turbo toyota diesel

What are you putting behind it to attempt to put that kinda power to the ground? that is a lot of A$$. It should give the ricers a run for their money at the stoplight if you can get it to hook up!

 

[fieldsken1]

from the old racing days. WHEN IN DOUBT GASS IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. you can never have enough power

Holy cow I wish I had a penny for every dollar you have!!! ;p

That will be crazy!! How will it work out for steering shaft clearance?? Or what about the clearance to the brake booster?? OK i am just worrying too much!!

I like it ! !! When you pull your other one , send it to me . Need it for my drag car.

 

[batcon]

Whats wrong with the other motor? I thought it was new? Sounded strong!

Wow, $8382, discounted from $11,863. At that savings you should buy a spare.


2/3 the people that contribute to this forum don't have that much in their whole hobby.

Just get behind it and push Ken....

wow, $8382, discounted from $11,000. 2/3 of the people that contribute to this forum have no clue how much money they really have into their truck or trucks, and did not, and may still not have a clue as to the compulsive or addictive nature of this [STRIKE]disease[/STRIKE] hobby.

Fixed....

 

[dgangle]

funny and perhaps true, but you missed my point

 

[ranger]

What are you plans for cooling that monster?

 

[Ziffdaddy]

I'm a stocker at heart....but that engine is awesome! I'd love to see people's faces as that leaps off the line at a stoplight!

 

[Pighead]

Dude,
You are either smoking some serious stuff, or you have finally, completely gone over the edge. Or someone has hacked your account. Is it too late to get your money back? Turbo diesel, dude.

 

[fieldsken1]

well the way i see it (the money) you cant take it with you so you might as well have fun with it now. anyway someone asked how to cool it well i figured dry ice and a big fan. and also poser if this does not work maybe i will push it right to the junk yard. also there is nothing wrong with the other motor it has toooo bigggg a cam and has cam overlap. it is for drag racing building horsepower at 5000 plus rpms so wont work good in a 4x4.

 

[dgangle]

carb, cam, lifters, rockers and an intake could cerainly cure that problem for less than a grand, including labor
