The wood part was just pattern making for the eventual aluminum plate piece.

I wanna see what it's going in...I can't even imagine a road truck large enough for that to be shoehorned into.

I could see that bein good in the semi truck pulls maybe? Short of that it would have to be used commercially for maybe a big cruise shop or aircraft carrier lol.

is there even a trans that can handle it? tq numbers have to be through the roof.
 
what else can you say.....:dunno:

It's just bad ass...:pimp:


now there's a man that enjoys what he does.....took a concept and then actually made it work.....12 8-71's on nitrous....how crazy is that ???

very inspiring......

and yeah...I'd love to see it in a tractor pull..:eek1::eek1::eek1:
 
It's in the latest edition of Hot Rod.

Going into a show truck. Custom from the ground up. Frame rails look like sky scraper foundation beams.
 
It is nice in today's economy to see a rich gearhead doing what he wants to do. It's also a pretty neat project, in a brute-force/behemoth kind of way...

You could make waaaaaay more power with faaaaaaar less weight in a much more elegant package, however (while even burning the same fuel): it's called a turbine engine.
 
It's a show truck.

The turbine would be cool but wouldn't end up on the cover of Hot Rod or draw people like flies to a dead cat.
 
Yah, I know. I got nuthin against it...just kinda neutral to me, and I love diesels. No accounting for taste.

They tried turbines in Indycars in the late 60's, and a turbine car was the cover story on Hot Rod in 1967 (in the absolute heart of the muscle car era) - Parnelli Jones completely dominated the Indy 500 the first time he ran one until a transmission bearing broke with 4 laps left. The rest of the piston-driven field screamed like hell and they then changed the rules to effectively outlaw turbines.

Edit: I hope that guy never catches his beard in a blower drive belt...

He's building a truck just to showcase the engine. Thats still under construction.

Right Frank, he's done the turbo route also. Those only made 2800 hp on the same engine.

right AJ, he's just persuing a dream I guess. lucky bastard.

:haha::waytogo:
 
With that blower belt system going in to the plenum/maifold [whatever], the engine is relying on the 4 factory blowers underneath for boost. The rest of the dozon are just eye candy.
 
Wow, and my "big" dream was to take one of the larger GM chassis trucks from the 80's and put a 'Burb body on the back. Keep the funky fender flares in the front, match that with the dually flares in the back. Rockwells, or bigger like from the 4X4 PG&E trucks out here. And, a 6-71 two-stroke turbo/super charged, or just supercharged.

This guy blew my dream truck away! LOL

Those big 20 and 24 cylinder engines from Detroit and Caterpillar are commonly used as industrial generator power, and in Ultra Class (350+ ton capacity) dump trucks. Very impressive power plants.
