thats ridiculous power... look how much torque it has in his hand [X(]

off road mania

i look up the engine spec 2.75 hp [X(]
the drive train must suffer

Kemo

those hp numbers were made up by the factory.

BUT, compared to a small block, its darn near double the torque. thats all that matters is torque.

Wow, that must be fun in the dirt.

i think he found that video. big blocks on a stock tranny is very harsh. but, many do hold up to it.

Thats how he installed it.

70 bux and thats all you get? LOL bolts must be made of titanium or somethin if the price is that high.

But you can put any kind of bigblock on you want though, im sure some1 could make some of their own, but if I had the truck, I would pay it..

Kemo

it should be a 20 dollar kit. the cost to make that is a few bucks, they are making a HUGE profit off of it. Normally, rule is, mark it up 300% of the cost to make it.

I am working on just making the drive train where it will hold up with the OS 18 TZ. Now if you go by some reports {see below} it has about 2.28 HP and is a small block. No conversation needed.
