Re:Most Powerful Diesel Engine in the WORLD!!!

Fitting it in is one thing. Now start thinking about an appropriate clutch. trany, transfer case, drive shaft, front and rear ends, not to mention the suspention upgrades to cary the added weight. Oh yea, new wheels and tires, and of course an appropraite sized fuel tank. I think you'll be better of just trying to put wheels under a container ship and have the prop push it. ;D ;D ;D

Re:Most Powerful Diesel Engine in the WORLD!!!

A number of years ago I got to see one of the smaller versions of that engine. It was a 76 series from what I recall. If you look at where the man is standing on the completed engine, you will see 6 rectangular devices. Each one has 2 large lines coming out of it. Those are the injector pumps. One for each 2 cylinders. They are some big mothers.

On a distantly related subject, here's something cool for sale:<br><br>http://www.frenchcreekboatsales.com/...e_Number=BOP12<br><br>It would make a great house boat, especially for someone who owns an airplane. Or you can sod the top and have a good sized yard.
