Default 2.7lt Stroker Off-Road Buggy

2.7lt stroker crank, 83mm with oversize 103mm pistons and darton sleeves one off cnc/hand fabricated dry-sump system with the power steering pump and oil pump internally mounted in the sump (the most trick bit of gear on the face of the planet. in excess of 300 hours spent on the cad/cnc machine and reputed to cost around 20 grand if duplicated) running on a internal gated GT40r turbo through a barrel type water/air and all the other usual stuff

as for the rest of it, sorry, didn't pay much attention to the other "buggy" stuff, but i can tell you its a hand fabricated chrome molly chassis with 32" of travel KING suspension running Autronic and a Stack dash for logging, not to mention the cnc built out of one piece of solid billet stock 4 speed sequential with a torque convertor!

on first initial tuning without making much noise it made 200rwkw's and 900, that's right, 900nm's of torque before it popped a head gasket!

pretty hot bit of gear, curious on the reverse manifold only to put a big 180 degree bend in the pipe?

Don't think you could easily move the crossbar from the frame without making it a fair bit heavier to compensate.

Most likely the lesser of two evils. Great looking toy. Would love to have a play.

I've seen a site some time ago with one of these rails with the 5.7lt turbo for about the 100k mark. Dont quote me but I think it had around 600hp.
