I meant 6-v53 is what they had not heard of, sorry.
Love the sound of a GM 2 stroke.
But no cab insulation in a Landy would save your mind after a 100km trip!!!!,I doubt if you could insulate it down enough.
Would sound awsome in somebody elses Landy:D:D:D:D

Max torque was somewhere around 1500rpm. It really used to get into it from 1200 -1800. Was probably a good bit higher there than you say the 2300 rpm figure was. The 435 hp version had 1088 lb ft at 2100 & 1242 lb ft @ 1400.Quote:

A friend has a V6, 2 stroke diesel in a half track. Does sound well. He has to wear earmuffs, but that is with the noise from the tracks as well.
Pic below from lunch stop on a trip last year.
you can make a 6v53 fit into a perentie engine bay and therefore a deefer as well and if you naff off the aircon the county too...
getting its power to ground tho is a different matter.
Do not ask how I know.... It never happened there are no pics, alcohol was involved as was 2 broken 1/15th vehicles that both had the engines out, there was a floor crane handy there was 3 of us and we were bored, probabley inebriated and we'd run out of fire wood so had to do something to keep us moving to keep warm.....
shoehorning the 53 into a 110 seemed like a good idea at the time......
And dont Detroit make a fine donk, my uncle was the manager for Detroit Diesel and Allison in Darwin
they certianly do that whole thing of each pot making power everytime it goes downhill appeals to me, now if they made it aircooled as well :twisted:

something along the lines of "training" exercise in interoperability???
