size matters
|
I've seen that about 100 times, and it STILL makes my mouth drop every time.
|
Looks like they got mini UmpaLoompas to walk around in a normal engine. Always seems funny seeing people walk around in an engine....thats just not right....
Still cool though. |
Holy Crap!
|
I want one for my car... :D
|
Holy fuck, that thing blows me away. Are you sure that japanese people aren't just really small and that's a normal engine?
|
I wonder what they use that for?
P.S. Im to lazy to read |
Boats.
|
pfft, 3' bore. Puny. Wait...my engine isn't even that long... guess its slightly larger than puny. :D
|
damn... just damn thats frickin huge...
|
thats absolutely insane!!
i´m going out right now buy it so i can rice up my super-freighter. |
Holy Fucking Shit.....Now that is an engineering marvel....imagine doing an oil change...imagine the damn starter on the sucker...

that's the only explanation i can think of. |
Hmmmmm, some headers, maybe nitrous, a stroker kit.
I can just imagine vehicles racing with this engine. The first annual container ship drags. |
Haha, screw headers. Imagine a CAI!
|
Drop a turbo and some nitrous in it and you've got one hell of a drag ship.
Those pics are just fucking insane. |

i remember watching video of the Hyundai maching the crankshft journals for one of their super diesel engines. Eaching chip that came off weighed about 15 pounds and made a huge "clank" when it hit the ground. They were taking off about half an inch of steel with each pass.
And my boss shits on me when I take .050" in a pass. |
that is easily one of the coolest things I've ever seen.
|
nice post.... most of the comments here are 20x more info than just the link you provided.
Please refrain from just posting links without any information in the subject or body of the post. |
i wonder what sort of mileage those things get. 1 mpg?
|
I just... Wow.
Coolest link on this board ever. Nuff said. |

huge man
|
I saw that chit on the Discovery Channel ... that engine has to be built in the boat, wicked stuff
|
Somebody mentioned turbocharging it. It's already been done. It's a triple turbo (IIRC) to begin with. Just imagine the size of those turbo's!
|
Who the HELL gets to torque those head stud nuts? My torque wrench can't even think that high. Makes torqueing a BMW head look like child's play.
|
what is there to see. i can`t see jackshit
|
same here :(
|
damn
|
Man, thats freaking huge. I wonder what would happen if it over-revved.
|
thats cool
|
On TLC, they said that cruise ships get about 6 inches to the gallon...
|
The casting on that crankcase boggles the mind...
|
Krazy. Whats the mpg on that thing?
|
With the engine that big, it isn't miles per gallon, it becomes gallons per mile.
|
That's absolutely one of the most amazing things I've ever seen.
What do you think it'd take to wedge one into my mini-truck? :) (before anyone thinks I've gone off the deep-end, I'm only joking!) |
That's just INSANE!!!
The cost to run those ships must be insane too. |
Quote:
Judging by the fact that it's tri-turbo, I'm going to guess that it's two-stroke diesel, making it even more insane. |
<50% thermal efficiency!! wow.... and the size of that thing...... good lord.. wonder how it sounds when it starts and idles
