to watch the video reminds me of the MAB from Binalong with its 27Lt motor and open chain drive.

Hi All

I am pleased that you guys appreciated the clip, I had a feeling that it would be appreciated even though not actually a military vehicle, but what a lot of grunt. Good one. :thup2:

Cheers

size comparison
 
28 litres is 1647.64 cubic inches! Unreal! The biggest of Detroit's classic muscle cars were 1/3 that volume.
