Thought it was a cool one until I watched the video. My first thought was I hope those are exhaust cutouts but no. Awesome motor, wrong application. It’s still geared as a 3000 RPM diesel vehicle. Seems like somebody had a hot motor from a fast boat. Completely unusable in this configuration.
Doesn’t sound quite proper!?! Reason is???
You are exactly right.. cool idea, bad app.
Jesus, how many gallons per mile does that thing chug?
I would love to know its MPG on a spirited drive.
6mpg on hwy
Less w daily driving
