Italian truck modification
Discussion
Not in the UK but still... 😲
Can anyone back this up?!
Apparently an Italian trucker has been stopped at a checkpoint on the Autostrada A1, it was discovered that his truck was fitted with an agri spec IVECO Vector V12 engine!
This undeclared modification gave his wagon an estimated 1,500 horsepower!!
Fine: 4,300 euros and the truck immobilized.

Appears thats a 30 litre lump, Fiat used to fit some serious truck engines but the only other truck engine i'm aware of with a 30 litre swept volume was Isuzu with the Gigatruck, but that was NA @ 600bhp...mind you it would run forever so unstressed.
You'd want some serious drivetrain to handle the likely torque, with 1500lbs ft easily available from 13/15 litre lumps the mind boggles, would love to hear in it full song.
