This is billed as the 'Largest Diesel Engine in the World'. I don't know if it's true but it's pretty d@mn big.
5.6 million ft/lbs of torque is .... meh. Decent. :shock: Thanks for answering my question guys.102 rpm... i can't imagine what that would sound like...Can Giles set my pump for the same fueling as one of those?I have so many questions about that engine I'm not even going to start.
what on earth does that use for a pump???Just the mechanics of the entire thing are so outrageous ....must ... restrain! listen to blkboostedtruck!!!
those motors are prolly found in freighter ships they might be efficient but do you know how long i could drive my caddy on one piston firing of fuel?prolly 2 weeks?
Therefore, 6274.8 Litres/hour / 6120 revolutions an hour is just over 1 Litre per revolution for all 14 cylinders (which is nuts) so thats about 75 ml per cylinder each time it goes *bang* IF IT WERE TO FIRE ON EVERY CYLINDER ON EVERY REVOLUTION. but it doesn't. It's a two stroke so every other stroke is a power stroke right?so its more like 150ml per fire. If my calculations are right :wink: ........... Duane.

I know where there used to be a couple in old Euclids too.
