I was chatting to a guy who was telling me the really big Liebherr mobile cranes get 1.5 to 4 mpg

This creation is very interesting too
https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sour...AITHsLz0pD0egl I think it is in the Guinness book of world records as the only engine that doesn't fit in the engine bay of a 7/900 series Volvo. Last edited by 360beast; May 18th, 2022 at 00:46. |

I have a number of questions that I'd like to be answered.
1) Did you have to upgrade brakes and/or springs and dampers? 2) Will it come out/go back in with the bonnet at the vertical? 3) Does the car handle differently with this engine? 4) Will an M90 box fit on the back without an adaptor plate? 5) Would I have to tell my insurance company/the DVLA about the "mod"? 6) Could I instead fit an EMD 645-20E lump in its place?
