It’s not everyday that we see such an amazing tractor.  The one featured on this video is a Volvo BM 470 Bison tractor customized in a place called Norrhyttan, somewhere in Sweden, which runs on a V-12 diesel engine capable to produce more than 1000+ HP.  The owner put a massive engine from a Russian tank on this thing! To be more exact, this is a Transmash V12 Diesel 38.8 L engine used on Russian tanks T-54 and T-55 which are the most produced tanks in history.

Just listen to this monster as it purrs when is just sitting still.  We don’t know if it’s very practical for a tractor to have as much as torque but we are sure that there are few points where you need it! As the driver presses the accelerator pedal just a bit the Volvo beast immediately starts to wheelie.

I’d love see this thing run in a tug of war or a tractor pull! How about you? Getting any ideas what you would do with a V12 monster like this?
