Anyone know anything about them? What vehicles they are in? Are there any with a front gear train? I am wanting to install one in my 2002 Jeep TJ and be able to adjust the power with a box or something. Here is a video of one running with a Allison 1000 behind it!

Seen one with a Allison 2000 in a Volvo or Freightliner a few years ago. There is no info out there on these. Not sure what it was because it was just a frame, steering wheel and drive train.

I wanted some info on it to. But from what Ive been told there are no aftermarket turners out there for that motor. So you would have to get one custom made.

Well according to Greg they are a 6.7 chopped down pretty much. So if you don't want a tuner. Do some machining and swap a 4 Cyl P7100 on it. Injectors I am not for sure would have to take a look at them.

With enough time and money would be easy to convert.

Do they make tuners for these?

I thought Greg said something about running the stand alone on one. He would be the one to talk to I guess hes got two in his shop looking to make power out of them.
