I already have a gear vendors with the 727. It's great.

I skinned it with aluminum flashing the other day. It's hard to get it to lay flat but I did my best. Ill post pics in a bit. Need to pull off the panels and seal them next, then paint it.
Pretty happy with the results.

I'd do a 4bt, the only issue is weight. I haul about 2k pounds, robots and merch and tools.
My 360 puts out about 175hp...well, maybe less now that its getting older but much less torque.
If a 4bt could pull this load up mountains, I'd be cool with it. But the size of it might be difficult to deal with, they look really deep. I might just have to get a diesel rig after this tour with the engine/tranny combo already established... If a swap could fit into my setup here, I would be willing to do it, and have a place I could do the swap. I have no smog restrictions/inspections on this camper, so I could put anything into it.
