On Monster Garage last night, they apperntly took a peterbuilt OTR tractor and turned it into a three wheeled trike.

They used the engine, transmission, one of the rear axles, part of the front axle, steering box, and assorted other stuff.

When done, it actually ran (pretty well too, by the looks of it).

Now, can anyone identify the engine? (I'm pretty sure its a cummins)

Place transmission in 6th, rev engine to 1800 rpm and dump the clutch..... He. He. Looks like 6 in a row to me!
