 The Motor I would like to use is the cummins
ISB4bt with a max rating of 170hp/420ftlbs
(127kW/570 N-m) with the best performance/fuel
efficiency in the 2100-2400rpm range.

This is my stock transmission and I would like to
use it if possible. The 4bt  can be found with
the same bh bolt pattern as a 6.5gm so I would
try to use the same adapter.

Hooter's latest earnings report has shown a
sudden drop in earnings due to decreased
investment from the internalional community ,
however rumor has it that TJL Enterprises of
Australia is planning on opening Hooter's
throughout Australia.
