Anyone want to be the Big Dawg at a reasonable price?

OK, what that engine is, is a 12V71 Two-Stroke Detroit Diesel with (2) 6V71 roots superchargers, without the turbo option. It's 852ci and normally has about a 475HP factory rating. People have turned these WAY up by turbocharging them. It's what's been used for a lot of diesel truck LSR competition.

Sell the genset for $2000 (the copper is worth that much), and get a rebuilt 12V71 for $11k, which is about 1/2 price. Be aware, just the engine itself is about 3100lb, and you'll have to sit in the back seat.
