Welcome to ThunderV12, LLC!
ThunderV12, LLC is home to the rebirth of the GMC 702 ci V12 engine. American made V12 power! ThunderV12, LLC has a significant inventory of GMC V12 1960-1965 engine cores that we have disassembled and graded. Only a small portion of these cores are good enough to become ThunderV12 engines
The basis of the ThunderV12 engine is the ultra rare GMC 702 ci V12 engine manufactured from 1960 to 1965. This engine was originally used in over-the-road semi trucks, fire and airport trucks as well as stationary power application. Much time and hundreds of thousands of dollars have been spent to find, gather, manufacture parts and make available these powerplants for your pleasure. Enjoy!
Why we are here - Our Goal
At ThunderV12 LLC, our goal is to provide highest quality GMC V12 based engines and parts to the hot-rodders and custom car builders who are looking for something different.
Building a hotrod is a lot of effort and expense. With the proliferation of 75 year old Ford bodies stuffed with small block Chevy engines, it is hard to get noticed. Stuff a ThunderV12 in the front of anything and the crowds will form!
Big Engine Roadsters are COOL!
E-mail us your big engine roadster picture with ANY big engine in it and we will post a picture of it in our new web page. Be sure to tell a little bit about it.
The Mormon Meteor made big engine roadsters famous when Ab Jenkins broke numerous speed records after putting a V12 Curtis aircraft engine in a Duesenberg in the 30's! At least one of the speed records still stands!
But the big engine roadsters go back even further. A nice example is the American LaFrance Chief roadsters built around 1907-1914.

A baby Merlin? The GMC is a full foot shorter. This becomes important when the time comes to see out the windshield!
