Nope it had a custom made billet crank in it . Mate sold the car about 3 months ago and bought a 200 series as looking at more touring and wanted comfort over ability . Personally the whole time I was trying to tell him not to bother doing all this he would be better of putting a LS9 supercharged crate motor in if he wanted power .
It would have cost lest and been just as economical. The car was returning 15l per hundred fully loaded towing on long trips which I suppose isn't to bad considering a 6 inch lift and 35s with gear reduction . He makes really good money and just wanted to persist with getting the most out of it . Was detuned to 180kw atw and 940nm for longevity . He told me all up with 2 motors all the mods, supercharging then going back to turbo etc he spent close to 130k . Sold the rig for 33k .
Hes happy with the 200s power . Im still shocked over the money he threw away with the patrol but each to their own I guess.
