True, I know he is the founder/owner of Powercruise, apart from that not too sure. Looks like we'll have to start our own eventt lol.

I wonder if anyone has tried this with a B-series or such, shove a big-block Ford motor in it..

Powercruise, sounds familiar, aren't they the mob everyone in the car scene hates that Performance Forum went absolutely mental at?

My general rule of thumb is, once you go past 10L your doing just for the uu@nk factor

Yep, Triton V10, interesting project, I wonder what happened to that.

Its the same series engine as the 3V 5.4s, I'd imagine it would be a bit difficult to fit because the 5.4 barely fits in as it is.

Look at the heads on that thing !
That's almost 12 litres......

I like this bit > "It is rumoured that during a spirited cruise session the average fuel economy gauge lit up to the tune of 54L/100km." (lol)

Looks pretty good, wouldn't mind seeing it hopefully at the next power cruise over here in WA. Though talking about BIG engines in cars. Reading the latest Perth Street Cars, Torque Fabrications (WA) are currently fitting a Sonny 808CI engine in to a XB GT and from the small pictures looks good. Meant to be a better write up in the next issue.
