a diesel would give you 1 main advantage, it would get fuel at all angles. or maybe try out a propane conversion for the v-8. i dont think it lacks power, its lacking fuel from the carb to the engine going up the hills because of the high angle. awesome job on the build though. epic is a good word to describe this, or LOUD!!! lol
If you can find a diesel from a big lorry or better because it wont struggle up steep hills and you will get better fuel economy. I know that diesels in america aren’t that common but it isn’t impossible. still good dump truck on an old tank chassis, was it an M3 by any chance
Really well done , how did you solve cooling issues? How big is the radiator and is it electric fan or belt/waterpump fan cooled? normally pulling at many RPMS will get enough air over it from a car moving forward.
Hahaha I love it. What kind of tank was it? I just bought a bren gun carrier and will be installing a small block chev in it. Would you use a standard trans in it?
I don’t think it needs a diesel, the 454 seems to move it just fine. A 454 has good torque too. A diesel can’t turn as any RPM as a gasser, so with a diesel he would lose out on speed.
