Frybrid RV?

[Stevels]

Hi All,



I know I may seem a bit Wack-O, but I have now gone from wanting to convert a tiny 3 cylinder, diesel SmartCar, to the other extreme.

I want to convert a big 40’ diesel RV to Veggie.


My SmartCar venture has proven almost impossible to make happen – but the last nail in the coffin was that while I may have been able to smuggle a used diesel Smart in from Canada, the dollar is so week right now that it would cost me well over $25K – and I just don’t think it is worth that.



On the other hand, I have not seen a nice, full size RV running on veg, so I don’t know where to get the answers to my basic question.

My question to the forum is this: What type of RV diesel engine should I look for when shopping around for an RV? I see many different types, including a wide variety of Cummins and Caterpillar engines.



I don’t know one from the next, and I especially have no clue what the implications are for converting one engine over another in terms of WVO.



Does Frybrid even make components that will handle these large engines? I assume the Gen3 controller will work, but the solenoid valves?



Any sound advice regarding these big engines would be greatly appreciated.



Thanks All!

PS, I got my Diesel Listeroid engine running for the first time today. Yipeee!! Veggie conversion coming soon.
