Nice! I couldn't keep a 700r4 alive behind my mill... thinking borrowed time there. Interesting engineering though... cool.

Its only putting out around 300 HP. This engine was used in the 50's in an unmanned Navy Helo. It was small and light, didn't need much power.

Just the whine of the turbine alone ups the intimidation factor Laughing

yeah it may only be 300hp but its not hp that breaks trans its torque and jet engines make A LOT of torque thats why they use them in tractor pulls.. hydro planes, deep sea racings boats and drags cars...pretty kool truck though

How does it work with a multi speed transmission? from my limited knowledge, turbines do not rev up or down very quick at all, so I wonder how the shifts feel and act. Maybe similar to a huge stall?
