Begs the question as to how much power can you put through a Niva diff / transfer case and it keep on going reliably? Being...

Taxis down here regularly do over the 1,000,000 km mark on an engine before a rebuild. And they're nothing special (by Oz car standards anyway) petrol 6 cylinder engine (about 4 litres - straight 6 Ford or V6 Holden) running on LPG. Advantages of never really getting a cool off period.

Gadgetboy, Tried the link on both home PC's and it doesn't work. Bums out instantly with DNS errors.
