People who have made fun of low horsepower rated large displacement V8 gasoline engines have never driven one. The torque, the toughness, they are more motor than anyone thinks. Easy to underestimate.
I agree. I will take one of those over a tiny displacement four cylinder with twin turbos and a supercharger any day. Plus the sound makes a big difference. Now, let's talk about repairing one. Yes, I know, my Jeep takes 16 spark plugs, but the torque of the V-8 makes all the difference.
the G is insanely capable especially with those tires, the low torque engine seems to suit it just fine. And you have big balls to take it in the middle of swampy terrain without a winch installed. Great video
They got trees all around. They have come-along or the like. Come on guys Don’t estimate garage54 Yall remember when they walked into the woods and made a driving car out of nothing but trees
здорово видеть людей, катающихся по бездорожью в разных странах. Похоже, что в России действительно красивый лес и тропы. it's cool to see people off-roading in different countries. Russia looks like it has some really nice forest and trails.
That was so awesome to see and hear that engine running in that off-roader.. that V8 swap is awesome and I am so happy to see it being put to fun use! Very excellent job everyone!
The G-bus is very impressive. I'm glad we got to see the end result. I never thought I'd see off road trail adventures with you guys, but I'm glad to see that the US and Australia aren't the only places people explore with 4WD trucks. Thanks for sharing! Although, note for the translator, they're called ruts, not grooves.
The old big V8 gasolin engine matched the G wagon like they was build for each other. The Torque from the V8 with the Gs four wheel drive and suspension, and the big offroad tires, worked extremely good in the wet deep mud. I believe all viewers became surprised and impressed with this performance. 👍
I strongly believe it was the driver who made the Mercedes look so good. Sometimes people don't want to hear the truth about why someone can do something better. A lot of people used the excuse that you have x y and z on your truck and I don't. It really comes down to the driver. Back in the early 80s when I was drag racing after I did a lot of modifications and switched to strictly track tires I could not get my car to go any faster than it did before doing all that work. a good friend of mine asked me if I would let him take the car for the next round. He did and he took off a half a second. That's when I realized I have to learn to drive my car better. Since now we know there were no issues. I really enjoyed your video.
Love it, offroad driving is a skill like no other. People might think it's just survival but it's really a skill, you have to learn that too. Power on power off how not to get stuck and so on, fantastic
When I was young and beautiful I drove a same engine attached to АПП-66. The advantage was that you can ask your 30 passengers to carry it to a next puddle if you get stock
I would live to see that old engine get some modifications. Port and polish the heads, a more aggressive cam, a Holley Terminator or similar, some tuning. Maybe even some head work to raise compression.
@@fastinradfordable very true but with fuel injection you can maintain stoic throughout the day with any weather changes. With a carb you just get things in the ballpark and yeah they're easy to tune but fuel injection is easy to tune as well if you understand computers, understand fuel maps, and understand timing. Don't get me wrong I love carburetion and the fact you do t have to worry about software issues but with fuel injection you'll maintain precision in real time. Carburetion like I said you get it to a very close ballpark and they run indefinitely basically. Edit: I used the wrong form of the word weather like an idiot 😂😂😂

Lower tire pressures needed to maximize change in tire shape as it rotates to help fling/evacuate mud from treads. Too-hard tires don't change in shape enough to fling mud or snow off.
Watching this whilst using my recent acquisition of a Soviet C4313 multimeter from the 70's whilst circuit testing on a Raketa Amfibian quartz diver watch, most people over here in the UK think I am nutz loving all this old Soviet stuff lol The 4313 was a NOS never used, virgin with everything in waxed packets including the little tester glass bead resistors, all I had to do was solder in a 3xAA cell holder, give it a thorough clean as was immensely dusty and the plastic foam had turned to mush inside, working like a champ now :D :D :D
Still made it that far on street tires. Put the mud slingers on the prado and we will see. You think the Toyota is that cheap made German BS? That is why the engine got swapped.
I don’t know what engine used to have this specific G Wagon but V8s are pretty reliable as well as OM606 Prado is a good of roader especially with the option of rear locker and of course good tires but you can’t compare it with the G Wagon, those things are beast for off road, triple locker, solid front and rear axle, and depend of the engine a lot more power This one in the video seems like some of the lockers are not working though min 14:55

My 5.8 V8 only makes like 165HP but when you give it full throttle you get shoved back into your seat.
Yeah I know what your torqueing about 😉 my 1.6 petrol has that low end thrust you describe
Torque in a gasoline engine AHAHAHAHAJAJA
The Ford 460 was the same way. Big V8 that only makes about 300 horsepower. However, absolute tree stump pulling torque all day long
G-wagons are known for being very capable off road, that Bus engine with all the torque down low really helped. Great video.

Lower tire pressures needed to maximize change in tire shape as it rotates to help fling/evacuate mud from treads. Too-hard tires don't change in shape enough to fling mud or snow off.

Looks like you're all running full tire pressure? Isn't the first step to offloading is letting some air out when you get stuck?
Anytime you are stuck in mud in a G-wagon simple trick is to plant right foot and don't stop until free 👍
Note to self. Bring something more capable than the vehicle you’re testing.
