I was thinking more like a turbine engine. That way I wouldn't be limited as to how fast I would go.

This thread has the most recent pics, I think. Been busy with the house projects and haven't gone out in a while.

Wow, it's time this thread came back from the dead.

I am desperately looking for a supplier for this engine. It's a Power Stroke diesel

Willy Mammoth · « **Reply #2107 on:** May 20, 2007, 02:28:19 PM »

It is said that it will bolt up to W,R and NV transmissions. They are used in Ranger pickups outside the US and Range Rovers.

I that was a big concern we wouldn't be looking at it in the first place.
But with MCR only three months off...

here is a company specializing in putting them in yotas!!

Lady Di · « **Reply #2115 on:** May 21, 2007, 11:10:57 AM »

yeah, now find US one! $I\'m Down$ Mark has been hunting all over and has his laptop with the wire network with him today to check on emails.

He found a 1KZTE in GA that is mulling over. It's local enough that he can look at it and pick it up. And if, before he gets working on the Mammoth for that we find something else we can always resell it.

crawlerdan · « **Reply #2116 on:** May 21, 2007, 11:15:05 AM »

did yall try contacting them??

Willy Mammoth · « **Reply #2117 on:** May 21, 2007, 11:22:04 AM »

Damm you Crawler Dan, You got my hopes up again. Diesel Toyz is where I saw it to start with. They don't have anymore.

And that ebay auction is way old.

Well looks like he'll be heading to GA this afternoon/evening to have a look at that 1KZTE. He should be in in a bit to explain more.
I've got an email out to a friend in Cananda to see if he can find out more about the powerstroke.

Is that a 3L Glen?

79coyotefrg · « **Reply #2122 on:** May 21, 2007, 02:18:30 PM »

yep 1KZT is a 3.0 liter

Bazzi · « **Reply #2123 on:** May 21, 2007, 03:33:36 PM »

a friend of mine thinks that the ford ranger was also called mazda something. It was exactly the same truck, and if counting to him you could choise wich logo you had when you bought it...

but grab that 1kz-te and don´t let go of it... that´s a 3,0 turbo diesel. and has original 126 hp. you can easily tune it to 160 hp with a chip and a intercooler. and then you have the propane left

Mark is on his way to GA as we speak. That was his first choice until we saw the powerstroke, but that is being too hard to come by.

Lady Di · « **Reply #2126 on:** May 21, 2007, 04:56:14 PM »

He's got his laptop with the wireless so I'm sure we'll hear from him tonight.

Willy Mammoth · « **Reply #2127 on:** May 22, 2007, 04:10:20 AM »

I got here in Canton Ga. around 5am and was driving all around in the dark looking for this place and couldn't find it.

I crashed in a parking lot of a Krogers and got an hrs sleep. Then when it got light I tried again and found it.

Now I have to wait till they show up so I can pick it up.

The drive back is gonna suck without any sleep.
