Interesting. Would love to see how much torque you could get out of that!

Now we'll need a new design of transmission, transfercase, diffs and possibly reinvent brakes to stop all that potential power..

it says 800rpm = 800lbs of tourqe and 3000rpm = 4000lbs of tourqe which sounds powerful. only problem is that bio diesel cant be bought at any servo so... reading further on their site, they recon u just add sparkplugs and it turns into a petrol motor just like that..

Ive never understood why people say they need better brakes for a more powerful engine as you still cant go any faster than the speed limit anyway. If the vehicle weighs a lot more or you are increasing your tyre size then i could see a reason.
