Those Aggies know a thing or two, ya know

Especially Aggie jokes

But I agree - the jury is still out on this one !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How much torque could an aftermarket bracket REALLY allow to be transferred thru it to the crankshaft ????

Looks like it is capable of about 32 HP. That the 48 volts X 600 amps. I say it will be a significant increase for a small 4 cylinder engine.

One of those units on a Cummins 4BT could be rather interesting...

Woops, 746 watts = 1 hp and that would be 38.6 hp not 32 hp.
