Zero Knievel Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Local cop wrestled an alligator in front of my house in Florida. We didn’t have camera phones back then, so no video to prove it it happened. I wonder how long departments retain incident reports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me telling Arizonans that there was a gator and an attack goose at the car title office, which was a dirt lot by a canal: "There is no fucking way, you are making that up!" Me telling Floridians that there was a gator and an attack goose at the car title office, which was a dirt lot by a canal: "Yeah...annnnd....."

No, you want the Megazilla, 615HP and 640 TQ, and 500Ft.Lbs. from 2500 RPM. It has a lower profile intake so it's easier to swap into a car, and with the redesigned pistons it uses it should be boost ready out of the crate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that was a little more than you wanted: https://theinfamousproject.com/shop/ford-7-3-godzilla-v8-motor-swap-package/ Or just buy an old rental, or wrecked 15-passenger van. Not sure what year they started using the Godzilla V-8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 2000s era F-150 with a Godzilla motor would be fun, I think. However, I think I've settled on putting an LS in my Nissan Frontier Pro4X. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or can you actually get those 5 bangers to make steam like a Cummins? I've heard the 4 cylinder UPS truck engines can be turbo'd-up nicely.
