Re: V-12 going into a '62
Great torque motors, somewhere around 580 ft/lbs @ 2000 rpm. But the dang thing weighed almost 1500 pounds!!! GMC used them in larger trucks from 60-65, but there are still a bunch running water pumps night and day.

Re: V-12 going into a '62
Nice square tube pipes! If I had a nice one layning around like that I'd be trying to stuff it into anything with 4 wheels.

This guy started his thread in the 88-98 section but ended up putting it in a 62 because he couldn't find anything big enough. |

Re: V-12 going into a '62
If you want a V12 then go for a Jaguar V12, much better. I've seen one stuffed into a series II landrover, they had to widen the whole thing as they are big engines.

Re: V-12 going into a '62
From what I've read...those GMC V12's lay down some crazy torque, but are a bit impractical for anything that will spend any amount of time on a modern freeway.
If I were to go through the fabrication work to shoe-horn a V12 into my C10 I'd get a screamin' monster like this..... 1000 Horsepower & 850 ft.-lbs. of torque!

I know a guy here in Iowa that builds The Best Allisons. They are pretty sweet. But not as sweet as the Rools Royces.

Re: V-12 going into a '62
There are bigger stronger V12's, but NOTHING sounds cooler than a 12V-71TT 2 stroke Detroit Diesel!!!

I don't know why, but you have to click the words "Youtube - Truck Puller - Big Red Express" to make the video work.
