Buying the VM engined Liberty might not be a good choice as an offroad vehicle, but because it uses less fuel it's the most socially responsible vehicle Jeep makes. If electronic engines were my forte, I'd have imported one of these from Italy or the UK a long time ago. Most of VM's engines have a hell for stout reputation and are sold in many different car brands in Europe. This is the same technology as the Duramax uses. The Duramax is the quietest running smoothest and least stinky diesel on the US road so far...but it's way too big for a Jeep. Half a Duramax, particularly with an aluminum block to match its heads, would be a really great engine. Common rail technology was invented by the Italians and it's become the dominant thing everywhere. Its only disadvantage is that like all the gas engines today it's electronic. Box goes, you walk home. The old diesels were fully mechanical. They would get you back electrics or no electrics. But their power was nothing like the new engines, which are beating gasoline for power to weight. |

Hi Dave,
With Horsepower comes torque such as this Chevy Rat motor with a respectable 828 horsepower at 7000 rpm and 692 lb-ft of torque at 5250 rpm: http://www.hotrod.com/techarticles/50660/ Where the diesel truck's engine wieghts twice as much, and only delivers half the horsepower and torque, but at a lower RPM: http://www.6066gmctrucks.org/Diesel.htm that's why we need eighteen speeds to go sixty miles and hour: http://www.----------.com/kenworth.jpg God Bless America, ßill O|||||||O mailto:-------------------- Dave Milne wrote: > > I like diesels, but I cant think of one that beats petrol power to weight. > torque to weight maybe, but not power. > > Dave Milne, Scotland > '91 Grand Wagoneer, '99 TJ |
