i was talkin to a fella yesterday at work about a radiator he had in the back of his ute.
the radiator weighs 1 ton, holds 280litres, and costs $40000 to buy one new. off a d10 bulldozer.
the dozer it is off has been modified with a v12 90litre motor, weighs 120ton, 2500horsepower, 7000ft/pd torque.
not too bad eh......

not bad wonder what his fuel consumption is like? it would stink with deisel at 1.30 around here

argh, he did say what the fuel consomption was, i think it was 85000 litres a week runnin non stop

Serious power!

280 litres!!

$1200 of coolant alone!!!

I unloaded 2 of them off our Cairns B-Double about a week ago, had been sent from some mine on the Atherton Tablelands and they were to goto brissy for recon work.

Yeah they're huge and difficult to move on a forklift as they are skinny and very top heavy.

MASSIVE!!!

...but who sells a crossmember to fit them into a 1200?

Maddat didn't know what I was talking about!!???

Oh..should I use the stumpy or the S13 gearbox?

hehe better use the CA18DET box to handle to extra power the 90 litre engine produces.

But there might be a bit of modification required to your transmission tunnel - I understand the flywheel could weigh a couple of ton.

Should bolt up pretty easy though, a mate of mine said so.

i have been running one of these things in my coupe 4 ages. I just used the standard box with a different bell housing very short gears but.
