This motor is one of the best ones ive seen though, it doesnt sling oil in every direction and for a two stroke it doesnt smoke too bad... except under heavy throttle, when it just bellows it.

AWESOME - There's nothing else that sounds like those engines. I remember when the Silver version came out, dad was running an old 318 hp 8V71 in his cabover GMC Jimmy. The old Detroits are definitely the most unique and meanest sounding diesels ever. Great engine choice, the Cat just wouldn't have been obnoxious enough for this project
