Imo i think dyno running your motor and find out what your motor is putting out and at what revs first. no good having 400hp@8000rpm and you never get it over 3500rpm or having 300lbs of tourqe @ 1000 rpm and your trucks set up for 4000rpm@100ks in top gear. at least from the dyno test .you will get ...

would think just a piper cam and some head work and two inch spacer to lift plenium chamber up on a 9.35:1. would be better and cheaper than laggy turbo. as for supercharged i think it would force to much air into back pots , and i think alloy holden motors where based on rover/buick motors ;) bite ...

would a 33x12.5 not be able to be aired down to produce the same length foot print as a 33x10.5.? would think its more to do with how tall a tire is that gains more length when aired down. tracked vehicles increase widths of tracks too. swamp tracks for dozers are wider for mud/sand. tread lightly ...

Imo generally as vehicle increases there ground pressure they decrease there offroad preformance a vehicle with lower vci (lbs/sq inch) should out preform vehicle with higher one. tracked vehicles have low lbs/sq inch, because the weight is spread out more,so bigger tires on a 4x4 will give more ...

4wd dyno would a 2l td put 300ft-lb to the front and 300ft-lb to the rear on a 4wd? or is that a 2ltd would put out 300ft-lb at the fly wheel then it get split to four wheels giving it 75ft-lb or maybe 30-60kw at each wheel? thought dyno tells what putting out at wheels would think that roverv8 was ...
