I want to upgrade my entire engine to this new diesel engine I found. It puts out a hella amount of horses and an ungodly amount of torque. The question is though, will it fit?

Ummmm....

 

I have seen that before. I wonder howm any bottles of oil it takes for an oil change?

 

Maximum power: 108,920 hp at 102 rpm
Maximum torque: 5,608,312 lb/ft at 102rpm


don't go over 110 RPM's!, you'll throw a rod

 

What a beast

 

5.6 MILLION lb/ft! Good God!

I want to see the DYNO they used.

 

HI!... I wonder if K&N makes a filter for that?

I wonder if that engine builder has a problem with blown head gaskets?

I wonder if one of GREG EVANS "MONSTER BOXS" could hold up to that?

 

Yada Yada...I was going to use it, but couldn't figure out what size blower pulley to use...I think I'd need a big one for the Eaton!

 

I can see that conversation now:

Me: Gregg, I'm thinking of using this engine. What do you think?

Gregg: Well, let's see, after the torque converter that thing makes 11.2 million lb/ft of torque. Hmm.... Well none of the stock Monster boxes can handle it but give me a couple of hours and I'll get you set up.

A couple of hours later Gregg drops a Monster box on my head

thats weak..............

 

HMM.. how much power does a aircraft carrier put out?

 

I cannot believe the size of that camshaft! Actually, I cannot beleive the size of that period! Aircraft carriers do not have an engine like that, they are all nuclear powered, no fuel driven engines. im guessing those engines are for huge cargo ships, tankers, etc? that may sound like alot of torque, but if you think about how much frieght a 800ft long tanker can hold, you need that much power. still, that is one massive engine.

 

What kinda miles per gallon does this thing get???

 

I think you mean gallons per mile.

It sez the 14 banger consumes 1,660 gallons/hour. If the ship goes 20 MPH, that's 83 gallons/mile!
