Oh damn, we reminded him again. I'm sure it's in the XOC by-laws somewhere that we've got to placate his purchasing decisions.

I know that the Calmini project X has the 240hp 3.5 liter in it. Basically, you can drop in whatever motor you can fit in, mate to the tranny, and cobble up the electronics enought to run it. There's a morphodite parked out front right now that has a Chev 454, in a Dodge 1500 body with a Ford tranny. I'm waiting for the X's to get a few years older to see the heavy duty "project" mods start to roll across these boards. Exciting times ahead.

I'd love to see the diesel models roll into North America. All that low end torque would be fantastic for off roading.
