Smackin .. valve>piston dont sound good

nuttin wrong with truck engines the *B* engine is truck derivative
after all we dont want new cams and bored out for the power out put , rather for the economy factor [ id like you to think]

you know better than me .. i drove a Celica in Germany one year , last century ..
nice ride
"Celica, came with a 22re(2.4 truck motor) yeah I want a 2.7 l motor 150 hp vs 105hp."
if those power plants will drop in should be able to find a crashed unit in any big city salvage yard .. of "unknown " quality

i think i want a long range machine with a steam engine .. boiler fed with wood pellets .. take about an hour to get it up to run then run for 12 hours .. fireman ,fireman shovel that coal [nope auger from a wood pellet bin]

i know just the airbody i would want ..

optimized for 100Kph..

kinda of a post apocalyptic steam punk thing..
