It's so beefy Amazing work so far. A non-tall diesel is going to be tough because of the very nature of the things. As much as i love diesels, based on your size limitations/vehicle weight i would personally just go with a 6 liter LS or something of that nature. power/size/weight/simplicity can't be beat. I think the 2.8 trying to turn 40s would get tiring pretty quick. Comedy answer is, as always, the VW 5.0 V10 TDI.

Ferremit posted:Pity the US is devoid of all the good little Japanese diesels. Something like a Toyota 1KD-FTV or the Isuzu 4JJ1 3.0L 4 cylinder diesels would be perfect, especially with lightweight bolt on mods to boost the output of them! The earlier engines like the 4JG2 and 1KZTE are available and relatively cheap, but it still seems you're still barely breaking 150hp at 400ft/lbs.

If you haven''t figured out your transmission situation yet, there's a company in Poland that makes a controller and adapters for the ZF 8HP70 which is in a ton of ram trucks and V8 chargers/challengers/chrysler 300s. They don't make an adapter for the 4BT but i would imagine they would be able to get it done. Could be fun to attempt. https://www.facebook.com/turbolamik/ If you're not too married to the 4BT. they do already have adapters for the BMW M57 diesel and are putting a 400hp one in a nissan patrol. https://engineswapdepot.com/?p=75815 Powershift fucked around with this message at 02:42 on Sep 5, 2021 |
