I think it's cool how they gun-drilled the crank throws to reduce the weight of the 300 ton crank. That's probably what got them that extra 2 RPM on the top end.

Mexstan is right. As I said in my earlier post, they start on compressed air. The fuel is fed through centrifugal filters and then a final small screen filtering system. Lube oil is added by the 55 gallon drum.
