That gif was my other choice... I just thought the wacky waving inflatable flailing arm tube man was funny.

Iol I didn't even notice wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man there! downside of looking at this stuff on a phone...

Al Harrington is gonna sue you though...

I’m pretty sure they bought it from Al Harrington’s Emporium and Warehouse.

The Godzilla would need alot to impress me to use it over a diesel for towing.

Yeah, we tried to impress him with that while you were on hiatus. He remains skeptical.

If he's not impressed by a factory Ford twin turbo pushrod Godzilla with a manufacturer's warranty, making a conservative 600-700hp while de-tuned for safety/longevity, then he needs to stick to riding goats. Especially if they use compound turbos.

Compound turbos on a goat?!

That sounds like it could get messy...

 

[RonD]

I don't think you can use Boost on a goat, they are strictly N/A
You can power them with pickles and beans which would get a "boost" from rear after burner

So they built a twin turbo pushrod 7.3 that is still less power than a predator 5.2 and you wonder why I don't care...

A quad cam engine is gonna spank a pushrod 2 valve motor consistently and still be reliable. It's physics... they can push that Godzilla engine to the max and a predator will still best it because it's flat out a better engine design.

The predator is 760hp.

Meanwhile with a supercharger (like the predator has) it made twice as much as a Predator... with a plain truck block, heads and crank.

1 or 4 camshafts are too many
Why complicate a simple thing with valves
Direct injection 2-stroke engines are the future

And you can run 2-stroke engines backwards so you can eliminate Reverse in all transmissions, so way way simpler

18:30 is a time???

If you are going on a date then is it at 18:30, or are not sure if its a date, just two friends meeting up for ??, so "date to be determined"
