owelly Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 I have windows. BIG windows. 6 of them. 6 foot x 6foot. HEUUUGE windows. But all I can see through my windows are 7 big orange gas engines and 4 massive grey diesel engines. Why have windows that look inside 🤔 savin up to be eccentric. but for now, i'll just be stupid...

Dickie Normuss Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 HP is all well and good, but what's the torque and what's the 0-60 🤔 Seek forgiveness, not permission. 1700 X-Flow.

Myles Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 Do you think you could power a 7 from one using a derivation of mechanical sheep-shearing devices - I'm being practical here (you'll never get that engine in a 7....) - but if you had a flexible mechanical umbilical cord thing, you could get all that HP and torque albeit at the expensive of a somewhat restricted range.....

owelly Posted January 12, 2004 Share Posted January 12, 2004 I'm trying to find a photo of one of the diesel engines dangling from a crane next to my Disco with the bonnet up but alas it eludes me As for the torque figure? I'll work it out on my next night shifts! And who would want a diesel powered 7? Need a big fuel tank. 180gals an hour on tick-over! 😬 😬 savin up to be eccentric. but for now, i'll just be stupid...
