Ch--y in a powerwagon? HERETIC! Burn him!
Actually, you're going backwards on torque.
Check the specs on RPM v. Torque and you'll
see why. 300 ft.lbs. at 3500 RPM (or so) doesn't
do spit. I have seen several done however, and
the problems the owners ran into, per our
conversations, was airflow (or lack thereof)
and fan clearance. Ask the guy who is selling
one here, however. He'd be the pro.
