A mitsipussy ?? is that a Cat block wi' a Japanese cylinder heid !! We had a 330 Cummins and a 240 Kelvin and the Cummins was an A1 machine in every way but the big Kelvin would have eaten it alive !! They both had oodles of piff but for brute strength towing and slogging,the Kelvin was streets ahead.(only one man's opinion though lol)
fin the reliance wiz built she had a 6 cly 400hp kelvin en it wiz a disaster after she went bang we put in a 535hp 8cly en she wiz ok 4 a while think we combination o oil jobs en fishin in poor weather i jist wrecked it,went threw 3 kelvins in 4 year 2001 stuck in a mitisubisi 680hp en never looked back(touch wood)
