looks like it's this one


Ya - you're spot on Seb. Still doesn't change the fact that FTO ain't anywhere close to 210bhp nevermind 240bhp.

Ahhh didnt know it was the same lad, i followed his thread over to another site (cant remember where) that he linked to and the engine he built blew up...

It must have surely had some powr gains with all the work that went into it?

Awesome sound none the less... :D

Id say he probably ended up right around where it should be - hopefully on the high side though..if anything Id say he has a more freeflowing rev willing setup.

In order to get a bootload more oomph from an 6a12 you need to somehow increase the volume (ie Larger/Longer Pistons) or do something with Forced Air / NoS..

Dont get me wrong, I'm all for the project, I love it..

I dunno, if you know but he has a whole new project now with an engine that, as far as I'm aware has never been put in an FTO before

Oh now if he was able to squeeze the unit from the Pajero (spanish for w@nker apparently) Mivec in there that'd be quite something..
Having seen one in action all I can say is WOW..

Not sure how accurate this is..
